French and Indian War in 28mm
And so it begins!
As ever I’m been distracted from my personal “15mm WWII” October (see here) by some of the gorgeous Foundry, Galloping Major, Warlord and North Star figures I’ve amassed in preparation for a Sharp Practice French and Indian War event early next year.
So in a break from painting khaki, and to maintain my painting mo-jo (I’m keen to paint whatever I want instead of stalling – avoid painters block!) I picked up some of the female civilian figures who I knew I wanted painted in bright and distinctive colours.
The five ladies are from Foundry (three on the left) and Warlord (the two smaller ladies on the right). I also banged out some of the wheat sheaves that came with one of the Foundry sets. Down the line I intend to flock the left-hand lady and the sheaves with 2mm straw flock, to represent a cut field. The other ladies will have a very few grass tufts and then a liberal covering of oregano (leaf litter).
I love the extra touch including the civilians! 😀
