Today with World Cinema, we hop across the pond for some quite Sharpe-ish peninsular Napoleonic(maybe more appropriately Wellingtonian?) chaps! Most are from a Kickstarter for a small game ‘Forager’ from a few years ago, and are quite characterful!
These gentlemen strike me as a fantastic combination of Sharpe’s South Essex, and the troops shown in the epic Waterloo. The feel of them is great!
These Spanish guerrillas also scream the gun sort of characters who would be comfortable with Commandante Theresa and others running around Spain with Sharpe, causing headaches for Boney and his henchmen. Last but not least, we’ve got three angry clergymen, all armed and ready to defend their monastery or local church against the frogs!
These gentlemen were delightful to paint, despite my traditional hatred for Napoleonic uniforms.
Points for this installment should be 15 28mm figures totaling 75pts, as well as an additional 20pts for the challenge room! 95 total points, chipping away at that goal!
More coming soon!
From TeemuL: You continue you tour around Studios with great speed, Andrew! One cinematic tip, you might want to try to put the minis in one line and take a photo directly from the front. In that way all the minis should have good focus and be visible, you should get some sharp Sharpe photos. ;) Those last three clergymen should feel themselves familiar with any Sharpe setting, well done.
