From Wargames Foundry's SYW range, a group of C18th labourers. I added the small rocks from my Woodlands Scenics stock. The set also included a wooden finger post.
Of course, even in the C18th it seems you could not rely on getting a day's work for a day's pay from the average worker!Any army needs to keep it's equipment up to snuff! From Eureka Miniatures I got this group featuring swords being sharpened and wheels being crafted. For the interested the Lion Head Fountain is from Iron Gate Scenics.
Similarly Eureka Miniatures do this rather snazzy Field Bakery set. The flour mill and surrounding items are from Iron Gate Scenics I think. Eureka Miniatures also have a butcher at work, a set I must pick up sometime I think.
Finally, no army can get far without either staff work or a commissary. From the left we have: Eureka Miniatures' Vivandiere and cart; Perry Miniatures French baggage waggon; two Perry Miniatures French staff officer sets; Trent Miniatures Représentant du Peuple; all around a Grand Manner Command Tent!
Splendid these fine vignettes always get crowded out by the carnage around them in game shots. Some nice close ups Mr. DeMille.
ReplyDeleteCertainly lots of carnage in games of late! Cast of thousands a bit beyond even GHQ!
DeleteNeat vignettes to add to the atmosphere!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jonathan!
DeleteLovely little vignettes the really add to the look of the table, very nice work on them.
ReplyDeleteThank you Donnie, much appreciated.
DeleteClassy looking figures David!
ReplyDeleteVery kind Ray, thank you.
DeleteExcellent pieces of table dressing, they always add interest to a game.
ReplyDeleteYes, they do add interest on the table as you say. They also assuage boredom when painting endless rank and file chaps!
DeleteThanks for posting these photos David, as they are lovely and really do set add to your wonderful games:). In fact this sort of stuff has finally pushed me to add similar things to my games, which I'm enjoying doing, even if the range of options is limited compared to 28mm.
ReplyDeleteThank you SteveJ! I'm glad to have helped you on the way!
DeleteThey are indeed splendid pieces, time well spent to create such a fine set-up. You have a "knack" for creative composition, which is much harder than it looks to get right!
ReplyDeleteFine work indeed!
Thank you for your effusive support, it's much appreciated.
DeleteLittle scenes that add to the game. Always good to see.
ReplyDeleteWe are of one mind on this at least.
DeleteAlways really enjoy extras on the battlefield and these are no exceptions David! Well done!
ReplyDeleteChristopher
