6mm Pony Wars commission for a friend.

Friend asked me to do his Pony Wars kit now that Baccus have taken it over. 

Three more 6mm Pony Wars sets done for my friend.

Mounted natives


It's a lot of horse flesh!


Chiefs with smoke signals


Dot... dot...


Ah, that one says "Help, my blanket is on fire!"


Buffalo herd


The White Buffalo had to be done


Don't rate those two braves chances!


Foot, with a few buffalo and riders I missed out


It's a big batch


Mix of bases

Few medicine men and things added in


Tried to add detail and colour to these


On the move


Teepees


Something to defend


Very western movie


Glamping

Singles


Why is there a Squeeze song going through my head.


Sneaking up on the cavalry


Back view


Heading out


Pairs


The Indians send signals from the rocks above the pass


The cowboys take position in the bushes and the grass


The squaw is with the corporal, she is tied against the tree


She doesn't mind the language, it's the beating she don't need


Threes


She lets loose all the horses when the corporal is asleep


And he wakes to find the fire's dead and arrows in his hats


Or something like that


Here we go


Sixes

Snipping or sniping

This is going to end badly for the cavalry

Started off with the two bags of Native mounted figures. Over 200 of them!
72 in the first three bases of 24s.


Top view, had fun posing one stand at least


The rules suggest bases of up to 50! I went for breakable multiples such as 24.


Back view


Not the crisp view I was after, but you get the idea.


40 in five lots of 8s




Allowing for flexibility.


Scoot


48 in fours


Top view




Threes, ten bases making another thirty.


Moving quickly.

Twos, twelve of - standard size of US troopers, useful as small change for locals!

Damn, missed one! And one broke off his base, so he's Hollywood loss (insert Wilheim scream here).


Top view


33 ones (two were joined together and counted in the twos.


Cantabrian anyone?


Spinning maelstrom of Souix!


Almost a whole A4 of riders.

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain.  I decided a few years back, rather than just throw it back like one of Nobby's escaped socks, I would actually paint some of them   Mutant Zombie by CP Models Or just a mutant? Nota nice looking chap That's not going to clear up anytime soon! Nasty rash there Puss, but no boots   Thought Sharke needed some support, so when I ordered terrain from Alternative Armies, I added a certain Sergeant. He's a BIG unit!

This time saw the first fielding of my new Young Guard. My plan was to adance the guard through the two villages, one brigade had deployed forwards in the centre to accomplish this; then swing in from the left with the Gauard Heay Cavalry brigade.

Exactly the amount of cavalry units in his brigade! Combined with a ...
