Or just too mean to waste 'spare' figures? Either way I have added to the Cossacks for my Crimean War project! When I had completed the figures for my Foundry Crimean War Roosian Cossacks shown in the previous blog post I had one figure left over. I decided to paint and base him to represent a Cossack scout - you might just recall that I have a few dismounted Cossack Scouts from Eureka's unreleased range. Now he is finished and ready to be matt varnished I hoped that you might like to see him ~
"Waste not, want not" as the saying goes seems to fit the bill.
I've also finished cleaning up the 1st Corps Early Saxon figures for this new project as we had the threatened short dry spell and I was able to spray undercoat them! Just six Arthurian Heavy Cavalry left to be processed and I can start prepping the Russo-Japanese War figures!
Looking great for me sir!
ReplyDeleteThank you Michal!
DeleteA good use of a spare figure there David, that will give you some options for scenarios, or as a courier/messenger for some bonus C&C etc:).
ReplyDeleteIndeed SteveJ, thinking along those very lines.
DeleteA scout is a great idea. Do the foundry figures come with open hands for the hard metal spear?
ReplyDeleteThe lance armed are open handed & have wire spears iirc.
