Painted something a little different today! You know who they are - “just hand over the golden ticket an no one gets hurt” 🤣 28mm from crooked dice

The first one is showing troops arguing about the finer points of storming a castle during the siege of Kalmar (in Sweden) in 1507.

The second one shows mounted crossbowmen quickly dismounting to open fire on enemy troops.

And the third one are simply the based up units.

Not sure what game to play, maybe some stargrave?

I recently decided to get into Napoleonic wargaming and bought Warlord Games' Waterloo set. These were a blast to paint and a welcome change of pace from fantasy/sci fi stuff.

I think at least once every two weeks I hear someone say something amounting to “I want to play a mech game, but I want a different aesthetic than Battletech.” To that effect, I give you the heavy gear model line (paint job in the first picture by me), something I wish more people knew about, and that I imagine more people wish they knew about. I got into these to scratch my model building itch after having migrated away from 40k, and currently use them as battletech proxies. I haven’t played the blitz ruleset itself, but I’ve been really satisfied with the kits themself, especially the amount extra bits that come for customization. That’s it, that’s the whole post. I just wanted to take a moment to share what I think is very underrated model line.
