Wargame Rules
BLOG BACKGROUND AND WARGAME RULES
I have set up this blog for my wargaming interests in the Muscovite-Tartar Wars, Reconquista Wars, the Barbary Coast Pirates, and the early campaigns of the Ottoman Turks and Saracens. Some lesser known crusades will also be covered. Miniatures are mainly 28mm with a growing collection in 54mm. If my photographs serve to encourage others to complete their collections I shall be pleased. I will also be mentioning other sites with interesting collections on the above. Do join the 'Friends' if you like what you see.
I prefer to use my own rules which are kept simple and involve eight-sided dice. These allow for fast results with various types of weaponry. Morale dominates my games.

Russian Orthodox Priest
As a follow-on to yesterday's post, have just finished the Orthodox priest for my Renaissance Muscovites. The casting deserved a general clean-up, and some fine sandpaper greatly improved the appearance of the coattails and hat. Some black enamel on those areas having lost their priming, and it was ready to repaint. Still don't know who manufactured this figure, but I like it, and I granted my priest some silver ornaments.

A motivated and great looking priest, nice job and lovely scenery!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil, I'm happy with the results, repainting a figure can have its risks.

Wasnt this casting a Foundry figure? I may be wrong, I often am but he looks like one from their Cossack range. Nice figure though.
ReplyDeleteThanks Robbie, I will visit their site to see if it is, or still in production. I don't need another, but it interests me to know.

Robbie's hit the nail on the head I bought this figure from foundry last month😀
ReplyDeleteYes Willie, I found it in their rather interesting range of cossacks, as Robbie suggested. Damn it, those figures are tempting.
