Sharpe's Rifles

-



recently i got into the game The Silver Bayonet, a tabletop skirmish game based during the
npoleonic war era with a dash of horror themes.
and the way it looks like the go to box was the Bbitish rifles from Wargames Atlantic.

and as i seen many base them off the british tv show Sharpe.
and just like most i also did for my first unit for the Silver Bayonet game.


i created a unit of five riflemen and Lt. Sharpe with a small unit of two additional
riflemen and Capt. Harper for Rita and i when we play Silver Bayonet co-op.

still have plans on getting a box of british infantry and add some officers and a few
extra characters.


"Did you hear something? Sounded like someone was crying."


Lt. Sharpe.
i was worried on how the sword was hanging from his waist.
but then i saw an episode of Sharpe and saw his sword was just swaying all over the place
as he was walking or even running so i didn't think much of it there after.


"Stay alert, never know what is going to appear.
a ghoul, a goblin or even worst a damn Frenchman!"

had a fun time playing some 40k Kill Team with friend Jayson and his Thousand Sons. despite losing, i had a lot of fun and my friend was getting kick out of his new Kill Team also. and also learn some thing about my own Kill Team and the general rules of the game.   even though the dice were not in my favor today, least i got to use my Death Guard dice.  Thousands Sons deployment  my girlfriend took a picture, her first time watching me game and watch a full game being played out she thought it was neat and cute...not sure how cute this was.... anyways in the pic.. the Death Guard advance and i did manage to take out a follower of Tzeentch.  Death Guard advance.  taking wounds.  taking a beating from the Tzaangors... or the chicken goat f***ks.  looking down the barrel of a soulreaper cannon.  the chicken goat bastards giving the Death Guard Champion and another marine a run for the...

still plugging away at the mess of undead miniatures i still have. these skeletons are from the Undead Encounter pack from Mantic Games. i went with a simple color scheme, i didn't want to spend a lot of time on them. the so called leader of the group. with the simple color and shading these came out nicely. i might go back and retouch the eyes, maybe add a green glow or redness in the eye sockets. rest of the group. way these came out i might purchase another pack of these, add more to the more ranks. Beholder Zombie. this fellow was fun to paint. cannot wait to unleash this on my D&D group. (insert evil laugh here) Crawling Claws. wanted to make some low CR creatures for this weekend's game, and since the group is heading to a den of evil what better way than this. made from dismembered hands from an old GW zombie plastic set. last year i came across some board games called Dark World, and the miniatures were pretty cool to use elsewhere in my table top games. so i used t...

ever since my last game of 40k Kill Team with my buddy Jayson, i've been thinking on a second team for the game. lots of ideas were swirling in my head. and i narrowed it down to the faction i always wanted ever since i first started playing 40k back in 2nd edition. the honorable and ferocious Space Wolves. with all the new material coming out for 9th edition and what has been out already i have to say i am disappointed on how much character the new Primaris space marines lack. i mean yeah there's the upgrade packs you could get but still there isn't much to separate one group of Primaris marines from another of a different chapter except shoulder pads. so deciding on this i went with the classic look of the Space Wolves. but with that also there is only a few units and not much i can use if i do a non-Primaris Kill Team. and with these marine i also tried the Citadel Colour Contrast paints. and i have to say i like them very much. very easy...
