A brief respite from the Wars of the Roses for you gentle reader, as much as for me, you and I have certainly earned it! A while ago I received one of Wargames Illustated Giants in Miniature sculpted by my son Matthew, Giovanni of the Black Bands. I found that somehow I'd already got one, so I passed one on to Phil for our Italian Wars project. Well, to my surprise he painted his up and it duly appeared on his blog! Put to shame I decided I best tackle mine then ~
As you can see he'd not win any prizes but I'm confident that he will do his duty admirably, serving as anything from an objective marker, to acting as a victory point in the game, even as a Champion! Time will tell...
And very dashing he looks too, David!
ReplyDeleteKind of you to say so Ray.
DeleteA nicely turned out shiny target for the Baldini shooters 🙂
ReplyDeleteTarget? Perhaps! Casualty? Unlikely...
DeleteLooks very nice David!

ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I prefer commanders that adopt a more restrained pose over the ones jumping about and waving their swords at anything and everyone .
All the best. Aly
Yes, the 'Hey Steve!' figures are a bit strange in some periods I agree.
DeleteNice work as always David and he will certainly have many uses on the table it seems:).
ReplyDeleteThank you SteveJ!
DeleteVery nicely painted and presented indeed! He seems to me to bare an uncanny resemblance to a certain wargaming chum from years past..... can't remember exactly who though 🤔🤔🤔
ReplyDeleteThank you Paul! Now you mention it there is a resemblance to that distant chap. Thinner then though I recall?😉
