For my Ottoman general I needed a Kapikülü bodyguard unit and I couldn´t find any horses with suitable barding and riders for them. So I sculpted one horse and rider as a master and made copies with green- and bluestuff. I´m happy how they turned out and so far, my Ottomans are finished for now …
Next army project
Some weeks ago I modelled a unit of Highlanders from Clan Campbell for my feudal Scottish army. Those guys were mainly made with some horribly half-painted old highlander and islemen miniatures which I used for Warhammer Historical around 15 years ago. As I still had miniatures left, I decided that I will give those also a polish and use them to build up a Highlander and Islemen army around the time 1410 – 1430 for To the strongest! in the next weeks.
Model requirement (ca.)
120x Warrior models
24x Bowmen
12x Skirmishers
The starting point 🙂
Nice to see you’ve got plenty to keep you busy! 🙂 Those Ottomans are really impressive mind you!

Thank you John! When I look at your blog and incredible WW2 output in the last weeks, I think we manage Corona quiet well by being hobby busy 😅

Absolutely! 🙂 Since we’ve had a calm, dry day in amongst the wind, rain and snow I’ve actually managed to varnish and photograph a boatload more stuff as well!

The horses look great! Quite a talent you have!
I’m rebasing Scots for the same system but in 15mm! To the Strongest is a great system!
