Another fantasy unit to augment the Landsknecht. In this case the "Royal Guard" that look like they might fit in as Reiksguard Foot for a WHFB (RIP) Empire (RIP) Army. There are only three castings in this case, one standing, one advancing and a standard bearer. Based on the time period I would have preferred double handed weapons, but perhaps those will be release over time.
I opted to paint these up next as they seemed an easy unit to knock out and get back in the knack for 6mm painting. They are predominantly armor plate, so I went with a black undercoat/plate armor drybrush. I picked all the shields and headdresses out in white, so the reds and purples would pop better. I had enough to do three stands, so this should work as three separate units or one unit for Warmaster.
Had you not said these were 6s, I would not have believed it. They look splendid!
ReplyDeleteThe Microworld minis seem more like 8mm when compared to my Bacchus stuff. I would compare the detail to Adler Nepoleonics
DeleteThey do indeed pop!
ReplyDeleteSuperb!
ReplyDeleteI appreciate it
DeleteThey look wonderful and colorful!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you like them
DeleteLooking fine; I agree, hard to believe they are 6's (or 8's)
ReplyDeleteThanks. Painting these has been a nice change of pace. I am almost done with my first to pike squares
DeleteVery nice, good to see you back on the 6mm stuff as well

I just needed the right motivation.
