Boers, Bear and Mountie

A few mounted types…

(Remember: click on the pictures for a bigger version):

Two Boers from Black Tree Design.

The Bear is an old (OLD!) figure of unknown origin (if I had to guess I might say Ral Partha?) and the mountie is from Pulp Figures.

Coming soon on Tim’s Miniature Wargaming Blog:

A few more modern/sci-fi types and some Greek psiloi and light horse are in the pipe.

Boers


Just… don’t ask… It seemed like the thing to do at the time.

(Remember: click on the pictures for a bigger version)


These are Boers from Black Tree Design.

I have about two more units of this size too paint up, which I’ll probably do fairly soon. I don’t actually have any historical opponents (i.e. Colonial British in khaki). But I figure until I do these guys could be passed off as any number of armed civilian types from about 1880 to 1940, or so; Any sort of European settlers in Africa (right up to German volunteers in East Africa during the Great War), Irish Republicans, Russian Civil War Militia, WW2 Partisans, Very British Civil War militia, Europeans volunteers defending the foreign legations on Mars… Perhaps some of them I could even pass off as Metis for the Northwest Rebellion of 1885…!?

Coming soon on Tim’s Miniature Wargaming Blog:

Elves, Boers, Zulus, British, Martians, etc.

I am feeling the urge to play some more tabletop battles… so maybe there’ll be a battle report in the not-to-distant future.
