The Tabletoppers

These are some Miniatures I already painted last year, and played them at the german new-year turnament in Field of Glory. Turned out that despite beeing ferocious warriors, these warbands weren't as usefull I hoped they'd be, leaving me finishing 12 out of 13 players.... I still like the miniatures, the fist unit is supplied by Corvus Belli, the other ones manufacturer is unknown to me - maybe one of you knows. Hope you'll like 'em.  

Today I tried finishing the basing of a unit of Saracen Lancers as I recognized I am out of gras - got to go to a store tomorrow... That's the reason these are still rated work in progress. Hope you enjoy them though.

Today I managed to finish one unit of early medieval spearmans supplied by Legio Heroica. The terrain seen underneath was the price for finishing third in the last FoG tournament in Hamburg.

As the tournament in Hamburg is getting closer, I was still in need for some apropriate miniatures. Thats why I had to paint a unit of saracen archers, some light foot crossbowman and another unit of knights. Have a look yourselves:

Some miniatures in my showcase, yet unseen here, were still waiting to get proper basedesign. These are the results: 4 Bases Lancers/Knights If there is an option to dismount them from another angle Medium foot - I`m quite proud of the freehands

After longer absence on this Blog - after getting a new computer it took some time remembering my login data - ther is some new stuff finished. In The Worlds 2016 touirnament in Charleroi, Belgium, I finished 10th of 30 competitiors playing a Wars of the Roses Yorkist army. Not only the belgian beer prooved to be quite effective, so did ,y unit of Liht Hores with Lances. To bad they were borrwed at that time. Luckily there were a lot of suppliers arround and one of thme hat some Corvus Belli miniatures to offer, which are sadly not produced anymore. I decided buying a untit of these Light Horse, and here they are: But not only these few miniatures got finished last week. As there is a tournament in Hamburg coming closer, some more miniatures have to be painted. As I still had some basecoated, but not jet started crossbows waiting for colour, I decided starting with these. I don't think they'll prove as a good option to take in your Field of Glory army, but everyone sho...

 As there is the new camera-equipment now, I feelt kind of in duty to use it showing you more miniaturesy I recently finished. These are four 15mm medieaval command bases used for Field of Glory. The figures are supplied by Peter Pig, flags are LBM geenric Wars of the Roses, as far as I'm considered. Hope you like 'em!

After finishig my Sparta project I had to move up to my next  Field of Glory Army. About one year ago I bought a big bunch of Corvus Belli miniatures fitting the "Caesars Romans" theme which tuned out to be a good decision as Corvus Belli stopped producing their 15mm ranges some months ago. Luckily I had already bought enough Legionaries and stuff to build that army containing a lot of heavy infantry. Legionarys might be quite expansive but to my mind they are absolutley worth their points in Field of Glory as they are really tough bastards to fight against ;) As I'm not yet sure how many bases one battlegroup shall be formed of, I deided to build first two legions of 4 bases both containing 3 legionaries and 1 command base and lateron painting one more base in the same colour sheme so I'm able to put them together as one Legion of 8 without having trouble with two command bases. So have a look oo my first roman Legion and some light archers !

 You might now think: Oh my goodness, now he comes arround telling proud that he managed to finish his Sparta project after a so felt decade.  But this is luckily not the case, as I finished them about a half year ago, palying them the first time in Ulm , claiming the fith place among 10 players. So now this is a complete view on the Spartan Citizen which are the core of this army. The other troops are going to follow in the next few days, so that you'll get an impression what messing with Sparta means. I hope you like them!

As you may see I finished some casualtie markers for Field of Glory some time ago to show the units morale in a more violent way. The miniatures are produced by museum miniatures and are placed on 5 and 2 Cent coins as Bases. (I think its the DD01 pack, but im not that sure) The blood on the ground was made with wood glue, leaving it dry and then painting it creates wonderfull blood pools... I hope you like them. 

As it was quite silent around this Blog for a long time by now, here is a new Post anouncing my latest FoG project which are the Dacians found in the Companion "Legions Triumphant". These 5 Bases are the first part of a unit unprotected superior undrilled heavy weapons which are to my mind the cheapest and best units you may find. Only the command base is still missing because I'm going to paint the warriors first and the commands, which would make the units complete to 6 bases, second. I hope you enjoy them as much as enjoyed painting them.

Dear readers as the new year got already started I wanted to start with some eye candy to wish you a happy new year. These  British miniatures for the Napoleonic wars are a painting job of mine, I hope you'll enjoy them. There is going to be more Napoleonic British stuff for example British Cavalry ( Hussars,Scots Greys, Dragoons and the royal Dragoons the "Blues") to come. Have a great new year, may all your good intents become true ! The British Line Infantry advancing close up on a British Gun British Line Infantry British 12pdrs.  

As you may see, my feudal French "Field of Glory" Army is still alive. The first battle-group of defensive spearman got nearly finished, only the basing has to be done in the future. I really like the shield designs and hope that you do so as well. If so, please write me a comment.

As I visited a friend of mine in Berlin this summer, I brought back a FoG army of  spartans, which are my next project, as if I just hadn't enough. Luckily the miniatures are made by Xyston, wich provides me with amazing detailed miniatures. But, have a look yourselfes and enjoi - if you like them, tell me in the comments... Cheers !

 After a long period of break, the Feudal French Project is now getting started again. I just finished up 4 bases Crossbowman and 8 Bases Saracen Archers, because I'm going to use the medieval Infantry and Knights for a Later Sicilian Army as well. Enjoi!

After a long time, my feudal French amry is growing again, cause the first two bases Defensive Spear are ready now. Hope You'll like them, if so, write me a comment ;) Cheers Sebastian

So here is a new painted base of Feudal French Knight for you. Enjoy them!

last year a friend of mine gve me these nice Saracen Archers which were painted by the Essex painting service, because he didn't need them anymore. So I took and re-based them to use my feudal French army I'm painting at the momnet as Italo- Normann, too. Hope, you'll like em- leave me a comment if so.

Dear Community! Unluckily I missed postig something since my last post in mh.... I don't know when it was. But, what a luck, I'm back now in 2012 with new stuff to come. This weekend I painted 2 Bases Feudal French Knights for my next Field of Glory Army: Feudal French. These guys have everything the FoG player needs: heavily Amored Knights, Defensive and Offensive Spearman, Crossbows and, and, and..... But now the lovely pictures of my work: Ps: Yes I finished my Bactrian Army and already played my first Tournament with them, which was the glorious Neujahrstunier in Koblez.

Hey There! A new Army is getting started - as if I hadn't have to many projects, I bougt a Greaco Baktrian FoG Army at the "Komicon" in Koblenz two weeks ago. Because of the enormius mass of miniatures, it wasn't the goal to paint an excellent army, it shall only look nice standing on the battlefield. Thats why there was so much painted in these two weeks. Above you may see a part of the Indian part of that army, these spearman are going to give rear support for my 3 units of pikes. Below, you can see the cretan achers wich, supperior as they are, are going to go on my opponents nerves. All miniatures are produced by museum miniatures, and unluckily they all have only one pose. So keep on watching my blog cause there is much more stuff waiting to be seen !
