I haven’t been super productive over the past weeks, but I have accomplished a few things. See pictures below.
Test basing for Spearhead (1/285 microarmor)
Microarmor bases for Spearhead
The Spearhead bases were a lot of fun to put together. I’m using the direction the turret (or fixed gun) is pointing to indicate the front of the base, which gives me quite a bit of freedom to run roads and other terrain features against the grain. Should keep things from getting too samey. The towed Pak-40 is too ambiguous, in regards to front-of-base; it was a dumb idea to point the prime mover directly at a corner.
Based a few of Thomas’s Essex figures for Regimental Fire and Fury command stands.
Leader stands for Lasalle. Divisional commander on the left, and a sub-commander on the right.
I’m supposed to be working on finishing up my battery for Lasalle, and have, in fact, painted limbers and a howitzer, but I’m dragging my feet on painting crew and horses for the limbers. I don’t know why, exactly, but painting artillery is my least favorite part of horse and musket gaming.

Thank you sir.
The Spearhead bases look really good!
Thank you, Chris.
WWII, Confederates, Napoleonics – no one can accuse you of lacking variety.
Pot…kettle. Kettle…pot.
Guilty as charged, your Honor. :-)
Lovely work on the micro stuff- the detail on the bases especially.
Cheers,
Pete.
Thanks, I appreciate the comment!
Excellent work on those bases. They have such a realistic and verdant look to them. I am looking forward to seeign more of those tiny dioramas/works of art.
Thank you. They’re fairly quick (and super fun) to do-there should be quite a few of them coming up over the next months.
