About Me

A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Challenge Day 70 - Paint Table Saturday #16



Yup, it's Paint Table Saturday again. So, what's on my table this weekend?



A bit of a mix as it happens. At the back is my entry fee figure for the Challenge. A lot of you will probably be able to work out who it is meant to represent.

On the left of the picture are some pirate figures for the command stands for my buccaneer army, a mix of captains, standard bearers and pirates carrying treasure.

On the right are some more figures for my buccaneer army - mounted and dismounted dragoons, plus riderless horses.

Finally, next to the buccaneer dragoons are 3 mounted Mongols to make up a command stand for horse nomad allies to add to my Choson Koreans. I'll probably be doing the rest of this small force (light horse, heavy cavalry and some light foot archers) after the Challenge, but might do some of them earlier if I get all my buccaneers painted in time. The eagle eyed among you may have noticed that the rearmost figure on the stick is not riding a horse....

  3. I'm blessed if I can see what other than a horse that figure is riding.
    Your table looks very neat, considering that it works at levels that would shame must factories. :)

  7. @ Seb - hopefully not too many. I'm relying on people thinking it was too obvious and opting for another character ;)

    @ Sofie - thank you :)

    @ Michael P - it has 4 legs, isn't a horse and clearly isn't an elephant, but is rather smelly. There have been several examples of these entered into the Challenge

    @ Simon - yup, variety is the spice of life as they say

    @ jd - thanks :)

    @ Michael A - indeed, indeed
