Sculpting is of a rounded style that I mentioned in an earlier, Casting Room Miniatures' post (see: Mounted Arquebusiers). Some bits of anatomy appear a little "off" to my eye especially with respect to arms but still, solid figures nonetheless. The style reminds me of Bob Murch's Pulp Fiction sculpting style and I do enjoy those!
A few more packs from Casting Room Miniatures' Renaissance range are in the painting queue with a trio of mounted crossbowmen to muster off the table soon.
Awesome looking command!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michal!
DeleteBrilliant! well fed :o) figures? but I do like the mounted leader, who perhaps needs his teeth brushed ;oP
ReplyDeleteGreat work Jonathan!
cheers,
Well fed and needing dental work? I agree!
DeleteAbsolulty superb!!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteGreat looking work. The sculpt does capture the look of a self-assured general delivering a bombastic and possibly delusional order....
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jake! Your description fits a number of tabletop commanders in which I sometimes count myself.
DeleteAnother fine addition to your GIW collection Jonathon. I use figures from the earlier period too. As long as you're not doing landschnecks they fit in just fine.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Peter
Appreciate the comment and justification, Peter! I think it look fine too.
DeleteWonderful looking command Jonathan!

Thank you, Christopher!
DeleteWonderful work Jonathan. I really like how colorful you made the stand.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them!
DeleteExcellent command stand Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteOoooh, I do like these. Always nice to have some different figures for Commanders!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I redid the Numidian shields according to Phil's excellent suggestion.
Yes, it is fun to have a mix of different manufacturers within one project as long as figures are reasonably compatible. These CR figures fit in well size-wise with the all of the other ranges present in my CIW collection. I think I am at five different manufacturers now.
DeleteThat was a nifty suggestion by Phil with respect to thumbprints on Numidian shields. Phil is a true artist. When I get a thumbprint on something it is never by design!
Very nice Command stand!
ReplyDeleteThank you, David!
DeleteNot a fan of the Casting Room range (Condottieri as was) but your vignette does really look good. Nice.
ReplyDeleteThis was my first order from Casting Room Miniatures. I have mentioned the sometimes odd figure anatomy so I agree with your assessment. some figures look quite good. I bought a few Trojan chariots and they look good to me. we will see how they look after a slap of paint.
DeleteFantastic looking fellows!! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated!
DeleteGreat looking figures, human variation, these guys are just a bit chubby!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
A bit chubby, for sure!
