Silver Bayonet
Bandits
Bandit made from a NorthStar Soldiers 2 body and head and Victrix French arms.
And another Bandit. From a GW body and head and Victrix French arms and pack. Plus a NorthStar Cultist knife. The arms don't quite scale perfectly, but the GW mini is probably closer to 32mm rather than 28mm.Bandits are part of the bestiary, armed with muskets and cartridge box and not much else.
The Frostgrave ladies (Soldiers 2 box) being slightly smaller and the Victrix French not having heroic proportions seems to work well together.
I primed both of these Black with an Army Painter Leather Brown zenith. Then used Contrast Paints (Snakebite Leather, Aggaros Dunes, Dark Angel Green) to give me some earthy tones so that they contrast well with the bold uniform colours of the warbands.
I am so happy with the lady that I might upgrade her to a “local scout” for one of my team’s, but I haven’t checked the rules to see what her loadout would need to be.

Just a head swap from a Frostgrave Soldiers sprue on a Victrix French body and arms. Went for a made up militia uniform as this old fella dusts off his musket, dons the old fatigues to defends his village (and makes some profit as a bandit) one last time.
Frostgrave Soldiers 2 body and head and Victrix French arms. The zenith of brown over black helped the finish. I used Bugman's Glow thinly over the face, but the face stayed quite brown. I mixed some Bugman's Glow and Mornfang Brown as a highlight and went with the change in pigmentation. She came out well.
