Participation in the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge is giving me a great boost in getting my teeth into this project. Since January when I started, I've covered one of the large really useful boxes and am now building levels so I can get more layers into the box considering the relative height of these 10mm miniatures.
A bit of mixture of units for the Sudan game this week:
- more for the Nile Navy
- baggage train
- British mule trains for the guns and maxims
Next up is the beginnings of a baggage train - like all the other 10mm stuff they are from Pendraken.
I’ve got two different mule trains for guns from the Pendraken North-West frontier range. Three bases are Maxim Gun teams (standing in for Gatling Guns) and the others are a Mountain Gun teams with an extra base as they included three extra barrel mules. These will stand in for any British Artillery battery - even though I have limbers to do.
The actual baggage is made up of native porters and baggage camels.
Next will be artillery and Mahdist cavalry.
Love the camel train! You are really cranking out the figures. It will be interesting to see the whole project review once the Challenge is finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks as always Jonathan - and I have as many again to do in the box. My intention is to play these 10mm forces on at least an 8*5 table hence the large 60/72 figure British battalions and the large groups of extras.
ReplyDeleteI will need to get terrain done to put them all out - but all should be done by the end of the year.
