Ashigaru Archers in 15mm

Returning to the Samurai Battles project in 15mm, mustering out from the painting desk one stand of Ashigaru bow.  The figures are Peter Pig and carry the Red Devil motif of the current Work-in-progress brigade.  Remaining to fulfill in the Red brigade are one stand of teppo and one stand of dismounted Samurai.  The teppo will continue in the red fashion. Samurai will likely be a mix of lacquered armor with black and red as the dominate scheme. 

Jake brought one of his Samurai Battles' forces to Spokane on Saturday but due to the length of the Impetvs game, no time to fit in a quick game of Commands & Colors

Perhaps, next time?


In a radical change, I have managed two face-to-face games in November with two weeks remaining.  Usually I am lucky to get in one FTF game per month and, otherwise, must content myself with painting and solo exercises.

    1. Thanks! Yeah, they will be easy to spot on the battlefield. 17th Century Japan is a really a colorful period.

    1. Yes, the collection grows and I'm running out of storage space.

    1. Thanks, Christopher! For starters, I would rather paint than watch TV.
