Distractions & Diversions (6) - Mouslings

Wanting a break from 15mm Fantasy I moved on to 28mm Fantasy!!

I bought these with a view to painting them with my 7 year old daughter, my 9 year old son already paints miniatures and isn't too bad and whilst my daughter has wanted to join in she didn't want to paint soldiers or monsters, hence the purchase of a bunch of reaper miniatures "Mouslings" some for her and some for me to paint along with her.

I reckon I could use these for Rangers of Shadow Deep or Frostgrave, and I have seen some suitable bad guys for them to fight from Northumbrian Tin Soldier miniatures which I will pick up at some stage.

Anyway on to the minis, these are the one's I have done so far:

Back to 15mm for my next post but not fantasy this time.

6mm War of the Roses (3) - Camps & Commanders

My Wars of the Roses miniatures have had a rare venture out of there box recently as they have been standing in for a human fantasy army and as the Lords & Lands medieval lists have been released they have even been used as actual WotR armies.

As they are based for Impetus they lack individual commanders so I have had to make a few from the last of my spare minis, and whilst I was at it I decided to finish off one of the encampments I had made ages ago but never gotten round to painting.

All the Command stand minis are from Baccus:

The Encampment, minis from Leven, Baccus, Perfect6 and Irregular:

It felt good to reduce the amount of unpainted WotR stuff I have, I really must try to do a unit here an there to get them done.

15mm Fantasy (XI) - Villagers

I have been looking to add a few villager types to my fantasy collection for while, as they are always useful as objectives/markers/scenery plus I tend to enjoy painting non-uniform miniatures more than uniformed!

The villagers, crates, sacks, sheep etc are from Donnington Miniatures, the chickens and cat are from Pendraken and the dog from Irregular:

 

 

 

 

I couldn't resist setting up a quick village for a few more pics:

I'm taking a short break from 15mm fantasy whilst I complete 3 other half finished projects, but will be hopefully getting back to and finishing my Orc and Goblin warband soon enough.
