I had hoped to get a couple more of the standard and musician, but sadly this range appears to have vanished from the face of the Earth completely, so I'll need to convert something for other units. Still, some variety in command models is for the best. It's shaping up to be one of my favourite projects, it's been on the bucket list for years.Mr Saturdayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03092917415087033316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-18334317396151496622016-07-03T12:59:53.351+01:002016-07-03T12:59:53.351+01:00Great work on these guys from concept to execution...Great work on these guys from concept to execution. The models details stand out really nicely with your approach, great musician and standard for these chaps.

I'm very fond of the sculpts, they have a lot of detail. You can't see it here, but several of the warriors backs have caved in, which makes them a little more creepy.<br /><br />Unit two is being assembled at the moment, this time with sword and shield. The ancient Chinese shields are a really lovely shape, and I'll add more colour to them to make the warriors stand out some more.Mr Saturdayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03092917415087033316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-69510053531996496002016-06-29T16:08:16.427+01:002016-06-29T16:08:16.427+01:00Wow, its really cool how you've painted them s...Wow, its really cool how you've painted them so they are the terracotta colours but still have such depth and character.

With two more units of these that'll be the bulk of a playable army done, so I can add other units at my leisure.Mr Saturdayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03092917415087033316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8999006694513130928.post-83303989062818626952016-06-27T12:42:46.027+01:002016-06-27T12:42:46.027+01:00Lovely and seriously rapid in output too.
