I got the final warrior built this evening so that is all four done, apart from their muskets which I am leaving off to allow me to ain’t the miniatures easier. I certainly had a Eureka moment this evening whilst working on this one. Evidently if you leave the arms off then you can get all the fiddly bits glued on a lot easier!

I really do like this set, and am pleased with how they have gone together. I still reckon they are going to be a right sod to paint, especially all the beadwork on pretty much everything!

After taking the photo I noticed at least a couple of mould lines that I had missed. Once the glue has totally set then I will get them scraped off. I will try and get these onto a wire tomorrow and then sprayed at the weekend.

A slightly different view of the same four

I am a bit worried that the right arm of the back warrior is in the wrong place and might cause his musket to get in the way of the seated miniature. Only time will tell.

Hopefully I will feel like painting something tomorrow. I also thought I might dust off the old 3D printers and give them a bit of a run.

  1. Oh brother, that is a great looking set of warriors! Have you decided what tribe you paint them up as??

    (remember, if you used thin plastic cement, you can use more on that arm to rotate it – it might require some putty and sanding, but allis not lost!)

    1. Cheers Eric, I haven’t really thought of which tribe, my first thought was Iroquois, but they really went for earrings etc. So I will have another think, might go Mohawk or Huron, really not sure.
