Teppo Tuesday


Taking a brief break from the adventures of Fritz and Friends, I decided to finish off some of the spare Perry Ashigaru w/ Teppo sitting on the lead pile.  I only had four plus a leader model, so I opted to add them to the existing unit of Yukinaga's 1st Division for my Imjin War project.  These models come without Sashimono, so think they will fit better interspersed with the others.


This brings the unit up to an odd 17 models, but I also have some Yari troops left over.  I am thinking of doing a mixed arms unit with those, and possibly adding a few bow armed troops to defend them while they reload.

  1. Very nice. Love the red/russet brown armor.

    1. Thanks, I like it as an alternative to the brighter colors I have been using with the Takeda and Uesegi units I've done in the past.

  2. Excellent stuff! I like the red armor with white trappings a lot. Nice contrasting details. I was thinking last night that I ought to pull some 15mm Ashigaru yari onto the painting desk before year-end.

    1. I have a few units to finish in that scale as well. Perhaps I will do a matching set...

  3. Nice Teppo! "Red" hot rather than Tepid! :-)
