Taurian Army for Warband - NOW WITH ADDED MINOTAORS!

Oh, the Wargames butterfly has flapped her wings!
As I  was painting cavalry for Clive's Renaissance Commission, these were sitting, needing painting, I decided to paint the horsey types at the same time..

Taurians are one of the more interesting ideas in Warband, a confederation of Minotaurs and Centaurs, wild and yet civilised in their own way. They are an expensive, heavy hitting and mobile force, but small in number compared to others. I've had the force a while, but not painted, until now!

So, the Centaurs:


Charge of the light brigade?

Centaur Knights - well, why wouldn't they strap on armour? The shield patterns are an abstract of mazes.


Centaur Warriors - a more classical view of the human-horse-hybrids.


Really like Phil's sculpts on these.

Centaur archers - think classic hunnic horse archer types, with better grooming!


Minotaurs are now finished!

 The Minotaurs - Three stands of warriors, a Shamen and a Chieftain.

Three stands of Warriors

 The Chieftain




The Shamen


Warriors with a hero


The whole Taurian Army, small in number, but very, very powerful in Warband!

Legion Imperialis 8mm - Bikers.

Bikers - 3d prints for Legion Imperialis Suspect there are menat to be more per base, but it suits my denuded them. I regret not doing one with plates! Brrrrrmmmm... It's all gone a bit Judge Dredd! Terrain box (Civitas ruins) painted up Honestly took me longer to build it than it did to paint! But there may be a reason for that Someone needs a word with their structural surveyor! I mean, the build quality here is awful. At least the marines will have somewhere to hide It's about an A3 of ruined stuff It's been trashed Comes with a lot of scatter  The rest of the club was doing it, so I had to do it!  Looking through the various Legions from the Horus Herasy, I decided... Nope. Don't like them. Stick to what you know. 'Stick 'Em In The Eye - It's the Emperor's Pointy Sticks' So, seven years after I painted the 'Emperor's Pointy Sticks'...

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   Claudia the animal handler, Bowie and Marcella the Monster Hunter from Bad Squiddo Back view Side on     Mimic from Bad Squiddo Gribbly Sushi? Catch of the day!   Another Grenadier 1984 from Brian's collection - possible Flesh Golem? Pants! Quick job, but fun   TT Combat Halfling adventuers, a barbarian, a fighter, a ranger (with squirrel), a mage, and a bard (with bagpipes) Rough bunch Distancing themselves from the Bard! Fireball!   Really random. Converted GW 1990s halfling on a...

AWI forces for Lee - 10mm Pendraken

Lee asked me to paint up extra forces for his AWI collection so he can also play 'Live Free or Die'. Lee's Hessians done, all figures by Pendraken in 10mm flags by Vaubanner . The column approaches. 1st Combined Grenadier Regt Top view In line Almost wide to deploy in line for my light box! Off they go Looking good Fusilier Regt von Dittfurth From up high Nice looking troops Column advances Just, go that, way! Sarge, we're going round in circles Grenadier Regiment Rall, at ease Thin blue line? The chords really make these figures pop Not sure they actually carried colours, but the pack came with a standard bearer, and after a bit of searching, I found something probable.  Everyone's favourite, the Jagers Blending in, almost Player's eye view The whole batch  British light infantry done and added to Lee's collection. Again, mixed facings as they were consolidated units. Top view Made of firing and advancing plus command figures Qu...
