The figures in 'Test Of Honour' come in many bits on lots of grey sprue , I think the world is divided into people who like gluing figures together and those that hate it ! - luckily I'm one of the people who likes gluing plastic together (takes me back to my plastic modelling days) .
Here are some I made earlier , a Aquebusier and a group of Ashigaru spearmen , the ordinary infantry can be either single entities or on a group base . Lots of arms , head and weapon options .
If your going to have Samurai who have got to have Cherry trees (in full blossom) . I got this bag very cheaply off EBay direct from China . The only problem is like the full size trees they seem to want to shed their blossom at the slightest movement .
I based four of them up and decided to give them a heavy coat of matt aerosol varnish which seems to have halted the shedding of Cherry Blossom .
I did a test run on one of them adding gravel and flock before going into mass production , here seen posing with a small Japanese type tin I got from a Charity shop to contain all the various tokens the game comes with .
Great looking trees.
ReplyDeleteCame with no bases but soon fixed ,the leaf shedding has stopped since spraying with varnish ,Tony
DeleteYou'll be composing Haiku next. Sadly I hate glueing figures, so rarely buy plastic kit figures.
