So simple stripes were the order of the day. Also gave me an opportunity to try out some acrylic pens I had picked up. The shield on the Baron is an old Bretonian one I had spare.
I also painted up a couple more spearman, using the arms from Wargames Atlantic on Fireforge bodies. I also did the last 3 remaining mounted serjeants I had from Conquest miniatures.
For an upcoming club campaign Sean has also committed, ordering himself some mounted knights. This brings us up to 7 participants. I'll need to nake a start on a few more terrain pieces as the idea is forming on running 2 or 3 games across the combined tables.
Ah, your Baron's War minis looks great!

DeleteWhat is your assessment of using acrylic pens?
ReplyDeleteI found the really useful on drawing shield patterns or some detail. Gives me greater control than a pain brush.
DeleteI have trouble controlling my “pain” brush too!
DeleteSometimes the brush is a "pain"
DeleteMore nice work Scotty. The "mix n match" possibilities from using different plastic figures is one of their major advantages...easy to end up with an army of a hundred unique figures!
ReplyDeleteCheers Keith, very easy to end up with an army
DeleteNice simple designs but they work really well. How did you find the acrylic pens? I have a pack that still remain unopened, interested in your take on them.
ReplyDeleteCheers Donnie. The pens definitely have their uses, especially on flags and shields. I'd still use a brush for most figures.
DeleteSplendid work, Neil. The pens seem like a useful addition for things like heraldry.
ReplyDeleteCheers Richard, they are handy
DeleteThe stripes for the banners came out really nice. I'll have to try out using paint pens next time. 😁
ReplyDeleteCheers Stew, the pens definitely made things easier
DeleteWow! a 7-player campaign...sounds like a blast. I always love campaigns, but seem to be the one who is usually running them...ha, ha! Great additions to the forces, Scotty!
ReplyDeleteThat's the same for me
