The wagons, mules and contents are Front Rank while the figures are all Wargames Foundry. I think it came together nicely and also tried out a focus stacker for the first time for some of the pictures which gives you a lot more ease in photography at high detail close in settings.

The wagon driver is a modest conversion to drill out a hole for the two leads which are simple polyamide thread coated in superglue -- given more time I'd have made better attachments on the mules, I need a source of tiny rings for tying things off too!
Next up some more mounted knights, that Hemp guy I mentioned in another thread 😏
What a great diorama, some real life action in those figs 👍
ReplyDeleteThanks for that. Absolutely agree on the figures, it’s like the two carrying loads could almost be a pair of brothers and the older watchman has that canny smirk. These things only come out once you begin painting
DeleteLovely looking vignette! I really like wagons,carts and mule trains to add interest and these are nicely done!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain -- the Impetus rule set I am building for actually requires each side to have a baggage train as a HQ so one of these is compulsory for each side
DeleteWhat a wonderful vignette! I love how you have it staged Simon and the painting is excellent.
ReplyDeleteGreat work on the figures and picture Simon
ReplyDeleteLovely work Simon. Original and refreshing!
ReplyDeleteThere's some awfully characterful stuff in there!
ReplyDeleteLovely piece, well executed
ReplyDeletecertainly made me chuckle, it'll look great plonked in the middle of the gaming table, getting in the way....
ReplyDeleteActually what you’re describing is the Battle of the Herrings, which is one of the scenarios I’m interested in restaging 🧐
DeleteReally nice job on the vignette. The positioning of the figures adds a lot of realism to the scene.
ReplyDeleteGreat vignette, and the focus stacking is nifty!
ReplyDeleteGreat composition and painting! It's nice to have a fine piece like this adorning your table!
