British & IDF - 20mm


G'day everyone! Some more 20mm moderns today. First up a couple of British in Multi Terrain Pattern camouflage, I think the bearded figure may be from Vepa Miniatures, not sure about the other one carrying a wounded comrade, Elhiem perhaps? I know my customer had done some conversions on these too.
The second bunch of photos are an  IDF Fireteam in "universal" series camouflage. The figures are from Wartime Miniatures here in Australia.








All the best,
John.

My "Anglo-Saxon Chronicle" - From one "Middle Earth" to another...


I have been very slow to take pictures of my Anglo-Saxon project, I'm usually taking pictures of commissions as my priority. I have painted quite a number of figures for this project over the last couple of years - very slow progress though. These pictures are of figures that I completed in the last month or so. I have used an unconverted GW metal Eowyn miniature - with feet pinned into a piece of rock (bark), and a Saxon Miniatures figure with a Little Big Men Studios banner & shield decal for the command base. The other figure is a converted metal GW Rohan Royal Guard miniature, which has had a new shield (LBMS decal), a redesigned helmet, a shortened cloak & hauberk, cloth bindings sculpted onto lower legs, and hair sculpted out the back of the helmet. I'm pleased with how they all turned out, and really took my time to get a colour scheme & details that I was happy with.








For my Youtube video which goes into more detail about the Royal Guard conversion go here:

A step back into the 17th Century - ECW/30YW


I finished this project recently for an Australian collector, it was great fun! The miniatures are all from Warlord Games Pike & Shotte range, and very splendid the sculpts are too. I particularly enjoyed painting King Charles & Cromwell. I posted some videos on Youtube about my progress if you're interested in checking those out.








































All the best,
John.
