Meerkats for Hammy

A quick commission for Hammy,

When Hammy mercilessly crushed me with his Meerkat infantry (that I had painted for him) a few weeks back, I felt something was missing. That something was Meerkat leadership.
 
A quick dive onto MMs website and a Meerkat general for my great friend.


Yes, he is riding an albino cobra, and he has a chain mesh over his eyes to protect from spat venom!
Hammy will base to suit the rest of his army later!


He is in corperate colours...
I had a lot of fun researching African cobras (did you know the Indian King Cobra is NOT a cobra?)


The flag shows his loyalty to the brand (and says 'Meerkats Simples' maybe)


Looking whistfully at his victorious troops?


Legandary general - simples!

A few Magistar Militum Meerkats

Spearkats and Cobrahunters


Swordskats, some displaying traditional heraldry.


The whole gang or mob.
He will do his own basing.

Simples


Next?

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! Thought it was only a few months back painted Sharke, but I checked back, 10th December 2022!    Claudia the animal handler, Bowie and Marcella the Monster Hunter from Bad Squiddo Back view Side on     Mimic from Bad Squiddo Grib...

Blizkeig Commander IV - Hasty Assault

Mark and Stephen took my British at 1750 points, with effectively the same lists as before, but with two turns of preprogrammed artillery and a turn of smoke to assault my 1100 points of Germans who were in dugouts and gunpits. I chose to defend the four hills near my baseline. I has three HMGs, three mortars, two command teams and six infantry platoons, with two PAK36s teams. PAK36s and mortars on the back hill, two infantry and an HMG on the front. Infantry and Mortars in the left hill as a flank guard British stalled, turn 1 they failed to reach the table, so it took them at least four turns to advance. Artillery had landed on the right-hand hill, and rear hill, but had failed to kill anything, even with two 8 gun batteries of 25lbers . My ambush was sprung out the thicket. British infantry advancing developed an unfortunate habit of getting hit by mortars and HMGs. The British in turn 6 cleared the central hill with armour, but needed to get at least three infantry stand...
