Fantasy Couple

While stocking up on spray paint in Element Games, I also picked up a couple of Reaper Bones minatures. I thought these looked like a warrior couple. I also liked how the women's armour was fairly practical, rather than the more common female armour which just about succeeds in protecting modesty.... and little else.

The models are Duke Gerard and Trista, the White Wolf. They've been finished early as I needed a break for 25 pounders

For a paint scheme I went with purple, as it's a colour I don't often paint. I also decided to give them dark skin as I don't think I'd ever painted it before, so I wanted to give it a go.

I'm quite pleased with how they have come out. Here they are fending off my Reaper Bones Scorpions that got painted earlier this year.

 

Jordanian Infantry

So, I've finished off my Jordanian Infantry Platoon. As you can no longer get the Battlefront Jordanian infantry blister in the UK, these are Forged in Battle early war British infantry. Most of the weapons are correct for 1967 (2" Light Mortar, Brens, although the Lee Enfield rifles would probably be Garands). I did have to convert the Boys AT Rifle figure into an M20 Super Bazooka figure however, which I'm quite pleased with.
