To finish the Impetus armies I started last spring, I needed a Gallic and Pontic camp plus Pontic command stands. Here are the results!
Gallic Camp: Seeing as how they're on the move, I think the player who deploys this camp should be allowed to move it across the tabletop each turn! Old Glory driver, Black Hat wagon, Splintered Light dogs and handler, Xyston rider.
Pontic command stands: Xyston Greek command figures.
That wraps up my 15mm Impetus projects once and for all. Next week, I'll explain why all of these fellows moved on to new homes.
Monty - that is some really good work there, pal. Love the Gaul base especially,
ReplyDeleteYea, two good ones in a row! I'm feeling lucky!
DeleteVery good work Monty !
ReplyDeleteThanks Dal! Hey, I found some locals who play Saga. Maybe, just maybe I'll be the last guy to give it a try!
DeleteHi Monty,
ReplyDeletewell done Mate! as Phil says the Gallic camp is especially cool!
more room in the cabinet for a new project ??? ;-)
Cheers
Gilles
Thanks Gilles, you mind reader you. Too much lead...and more.
DeleteThey look fantastic, but they make me sad ;(
ReplyDeleteThanks Fire. If I lived in a city near you, I'd still have them.
DeleteVery, very nice Monty!
ReplyDeleteMarvelous, absolutly marvelous!
ReplyDeletePhil.
Phil, I appreciate your kind words.
DeleteExcellent work Monty! love the camp set.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray! :-)
DeleteLove the purple tent there Monty.......that must be the ' Big Kahuna's ' .......I'm guessing ?
ReplyDeleteOh yes! Isn't it nice that in the ancient world, purple tents, capes or mittens are shorthand for the Big Kahuna? ;-)
Deletehahahaha....very true.
Deletevery great choice in the colors
ReplyDeletegreat painting
giving the reference of the figure is a very good idea
congratulations for your award
Thank you Marco! It has dawned on me that one trick in making camps is to have a lot of lead to select from. Time to buy some more!
DeleteSuper looking camps! Like that tree added.
ReplyDeleteChristopher
Thanks Chris! I did double check and make sure the camp plus tree could fit in one of the travelling cake boxes I use to transport my armies.
DeleteYup, very nice work there. I really svould try to do better camps, such as yours.
ReplyDeleteI follow your work and you, sir, have nothing to worry about. :-)
DeleteI'll get up a baggie of the good stuff, Sultan ;^)
ReplyDeleteExcellent! Cottonwood Grey collected from the banks of the Mississippi is the best. If we lived in Washington or Colorado, we could do the exchange by light of day. I'll be wearing a false beard and dressed as a train conductor so as to avoid drawing attention in your neighborhood.
DeleteI like your painting style. It is unique, figures are like cartoon :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Artar! They do look a bit better at 3' than 6." I need to check and see if you've posted any new dioramas lately!
DeleteGreat stuff as always!
ReplyDeleteJason
Thanks Jason!
DeleteThese look great. I think the camps in Impetus are a great opportunity for this sort of thing, I posted my attempt at one on my blog a while ago - you can see it here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing Matt. That is very very clever-I really like what you did!
DeleteYour blog is awesome. I am getting to the point where I want to start making my own bases (currently for Warhammer fantasy artillery pieces) so that the crew and machine can all be on the same movement tray/base. Do you use mdf board or something else to make your customs bases?
ReplyDeleteThanks Elon, I appreciate your feedback!
DeleteIn the photo above, you'll probably recognize the GW movement tray plastic I used for for my camp. For figures and the command stands, I use 3mm laser cut plywood Litko bases. It is always cut straight and true.
That would be a cool look if you could base your crewmen and machine all on a single tray. Good luck with that!
