Slaughterloo project - update 4

And so, after weeks of frantically painting for the project, it has come to end! And a successful one at that, I might add! :-D I'm really pleased with how my Orc Division has turned out (just in case you missed it, you can see it HERE) As I mentioned, I had an Orc Hussar unit to paint up to add to the Division, after a little re-shuffle of the composition of the force, and so, without further ado, here they are:

















These really were great fun, but boy are they big figures!

And so, that's it! The end of my project (but by no means the end of the Flintloque figures I have left to paint, so there will be plenty more posts in the near future)

Thanks for looking

Slaughterloo Project - Update 3: COMPLETE (???)

Hi all!

Well, the time has arrived where I can feel satisfied, and fulfilled. Yes, I have "finished" my part of our joint project!!! Woohoo!!! Well, I say I've finished. I've finished what I set out to paint in my original post here. However, I was fortunate enough to sell some stuff on ebay recently, and couldn't resist spending a little on more figures. Who can? :-D So I bought myself some Orc Hussars to attempt to counter Chris' Espirit Du Garde! So, I plan to drop the Black Watchit to the reserve, and march the Hussars and a couple more infantry to the front line. (which means I need to paint another 5 cavalry and 2 more Rifleorcs!)

Anyway, I finished off some more rifles, with these ones painted similar to the Historical 5/60th Rifles:











And in the "completed" Division:










I also had a practice at painting up one of the Hussars, based loosely this time on the historical British 7th Hussars.






So there you go! It's all coming together quite nicely. Now to start on my Bolt Action Japanese for the Escalation League at the club next month....

In the meantime, I do have some stuff for sale on ebay, so if you want to support my Flintloque habit/wedding fund, take a look EBAY AUCTIONS
