The wagons used will be either scratch built or the ones in the strelets Transport sets but with considerable Alteration.. The Crews, guards and the animals pulling them will be from Strelets.
Sets used;
Normans on the March (several of the marching bods)
Strelets Norman Train (Driver and wagon wheels)
Roman Transport (the ox)
Medieval Levy (2) (marching bods)
"Shaab" with crusader Crew (one the marching bods)
The bods new weapons come from the Zvezda medieval peasants set. |
Removable /swoppable load |
The wagon is mainly made from old CD case plastic as are the bases. |
The new wagon and bods with previous strelets based baggage Train stands. A couple morer Groups of marching bods and some stands with mules/donkeys, should see this finished.
And........the Neoplolitan Painting Challenge is underway.:-D

ReplyDeleteOh yeh!!! :-D
DeleteMind you..first time I´ve painted a Fantasy girly bod..oh .oh!! :-/
Greate work Paul!
DeleteVery nice build of the wagon
Truly, I don't stand a chance. You guys have so much more experience than I do. Thankfully I've got plenty of practice at being a good loser:)
DeleteTurns out painting a red head is more difficult than i thought so the field is still open. Loosing or winning...who cares..it´s great fun :-D
DeleteI gotta get one of these..
ReplyDeleteThe baggage that is !!!!
Excellent baggage train.
ReplyDeleteHola

Yes, she's nice...and your medieval work is, once again, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteNice work Paul. I will be waiting to see the female figurine painted
ReplyDeleteHugs!
Great work on the wagons :-)
ReplyDeleteJason.
Very nice work, Mr. Bods.
ReplyDeleteGreat work Paul.
ReplyDeleteUsing old CD Cases for Carts and Bases is a brillant idea.
A very good work!
ReplyDeleteyou have a special feeling for using and mixing bods and stuff from different sets !
I'm curious the see the redhead girl !!
Very impressive baggage stands Paul!
ReplyDeleteNice work, just love that wagon, Good luck with the comp, watch out for Anne, she's dodgy!
ReplyDeleteFantastic scratch build from the cd case. Good luck in the competition.
ReplyDeleteGreat work. I really love that self made wagon.
ReplyDeleteHow do you always get this nice ideas.?? Any hint??
Thanks Markus.
DeleteLack of Money..if you cannot buy ready made things you look closely at what you can re-use or convert. IMHO, there is already far too much in the way of choice..which makes inventiveness less necessary. The Hobby has become more or les a "buy from the shelf" one with the art of adding colours the last real artistic part left.
Ah, Strelets... how I miss them now!
ReplyDeleteLovely work, Paul! And using CD cases... that isn't easy to work with, is it?
The lady looks a winner already, but I have to check the others... I am sure the winner won't be easily found!
Thanks David.
DeleteThe CD cases are very easy to cut. I#ve made a bit of an "how to2 which Shows another wagon..it took less than an hour to make.
great stuff.
