More Ebay

Hello all,
been a bit quite during december as I couldnt keep up with work anf family demanding too much time. I did manage to spend some more money on ebay (I have decided that these will be the last purchase in a long time - I have more lead than I could paint in a year).
These are more infantry units (which I always seem to need) with nice detail and variation which for me equals painting fun.

10mm Pendraken Ancient British Chariots x 1 Pack. (310253725213#)

The first batch was10mm Magister Militum Viking Bondi:

10mm Mediaeval H.Inf - I think these are Magister as well?

And two packs of 10mm Pendraken Ancient British Chariots- just because I have never painted any chariots :-). I am still not a fan of Pendraken but at least the horses look fine here.
All that (five packs) for 12 pounds, including shipping to Denmark! How am I supposed to avoid buying from Ebay???

Guess thats it - happy new year and all that,
Best regards,
Kasper

Magister Militum - 10mm Sarmatian Medium Infantry

Hello all!
Yet another finished infantry unit - this time a unit of Sarmatian Medium Infantry from Magister Militum with a few more viking'ish command figures (I think - they were bought on Ebay so who knows :-)). They do give the unit a bit more of a vicious look and provided the unit with a few banners to make it look more colourful.
 Not the most interesting minis to paint but ok and I quite like how they turned out.

 
(hmm seems these pictures turned out a bit yellowish - didn't notice that until now...)
By the way - check out the size of the standard bearers nose - he probably goes by the name "Big Nose Thorulf"...

Best regards,
Kasper

14/15th Century Crossbowmen with Pavisse - 10mm Magister Militum

Hello all!
This is the brother unit of the previously shown one. As such they are Crossbowmen hiding behind their huge pavisses, made by Magister Militum.

This time painted in a more Teutonic paint scheme and they do look imposing on the field (until some cavalry unit mows them into the ground...).
There is another unit on the way, painted in the same scheme but with red shields with white crosses - should look fine together on the field. Maybe I should get one more unit so that they could form a brigade...


Best regards,
Kasper

14/15th Century Crossbowmen with Pavisse - 10mm Magister Militum

Hello all,
These crossbowmen by Magister Militum were a true pleasure to paint - quick and easy yet very imposing on the battle field. They are not very detailed and there is only one pose but as they are hidden behind their pavisses that does not really matter.
The crosses on the shield were hand painted and took for ever - I wish the crosses were more identical but alas.

These were actually painted in the dark evenings when I was stationed in Greenland - a great place for painting miniatures :-).

Best regards,
Kasper

Warmaster Ancients and Medieval - 10mm Infantry Units

Hello all!
This is the (as yet very unfinished) main page for my painted infantry units - a register of brand, type and what they are normally used as. Also, of course, they will be accompanied by a photo taken in my "photostudio". All pictures are of course clickable which allows viewing them in larger sizes :-).

This is the "family shot" of the army last time it was out in all its glory - many of the units below were (re-)painted after this though:
 
Medieval Infantry / Heavy Infantry

Brand: Kallistra
Other Information: Brilliant minis and a pleasure to paint. As always with Kallistra they are probably closer to 12mm than 10mm but they have a ton of detail and plenty of poses so are a pleasure to paint. They form the central unit in my crusading army, with their distinct crosses they serve as a pleasant fokus point of the army.

Brand: Games Workshop
Type: Empire Halberdiers
Other Information: They look great on the battlefield but are a boring nightmare to paint. Definately not the best of Games Workshops 10mm range but they do look imposing once fielded.



Brand: Kallistra Miniatures
Type: Continental Pikemen from the War of the Roses
Other Information: Not the best from Kallistra but they do look imposing (especially when their pikes are not bent in all directions...)


Brand: Kallistra Miniatures
Type: Scottish Pikemen from the 100 Years War
Other Information: Very nice pikemen from Kallistra - modelled in three stances - passive, aggressive and one in between giving a very dioramic finished unit. Highly recommended - and their pikes are small enough not to bend every second.

Ancient Infantry / Light Infantry

Brand: Steve Barber Miniatures
Type: German Warband
Other Information: One of my favourite warbands. The minis are brilliant although a bit on the tiny side and a bit brittle at the legs.


Brand: Magister Militum Miniatures
Type: Gothic Infantry and Goth Skirmishers
Other Information: Used as any kind of warband-type infantry. A bit boring minis but I am happy how they turned out in the end. These were bought on Ebay and the leader is from some other product line.

Brand: Pendraken
Type: Late Roman, Unarmoured, standing, spear
Other Information: The shields have transfers from Little Big Men.

Brand: Magister Militum Miniatures
Type: Early Sarmatian Infantry (and viking commanders)
Other Information: Used as any kind of warband-type infantry. A bit boring minis (two poses) but I am satisfied with how they turned out in the end. These were bought on Ebay and the command group are from their viking line.

Medieval Ranged Infantry / Crossbows and Handgunners
Brand: Games Workshop
Type: Empire Handgunners
Other Information: Used as any type of missile units. Great minis with a ton of detail and plenty of poses.

Brand: Magister Militum
Type: LME005 14/15th Century Crossbowmen with Pavisse
Other Information: Quick and easy to paint and look great on the field. Few details and only one pose.


Brand: Magister Militum
Type: LME005 14/15th Century Crossbowmen with Pavisse
Other Information: Quick and easy to paint and look great on the field. Few details and only one pose.

Ancient Ranged Infantry / Archers


Skirmishers

Brand: Games Workshop
Type: Empire Handgunners
Other Information: Used most often as skirmishing infantry due the commando-like bases. These were my first conversions and attempt at building more diorama like bases in 10mm. The commanders pegleg is a toothpick while the snake is the tail of a 28mm plastic Skaven. Very fantasy like bases but they do add a bit of charater to the skirmishing line.

Brand: Games Workshop
Type: Empire Flagellants
Other Information: Used as either skirmishing infantry or a warband of the more mad type - that will always try to charge if possible.



Brand: Eureka Miniatures
Type: Halfling Militia
Other Information: Used as Skirmishing Infantry due to their tiny size (propably more 6mm than 10mm). This is the more combat orientated Militia unit - the pack from Eureka contains 30 minis both with hand-to-hand weapons and bows. I used these to make two different units, one with msot of the bows and one with a more close fighting focus.

Brand: Eureka Miniatures
Type: Halfling Militia
Other Information: Used as Skirmishing Infantry due to their tiny size (propably more 6mm than 10mm). This is the "ranged" part of the figure pack.


Best regard,
Kasper
