Epic Scale Napoleonic British Infantry

[Rich W]

I decided to go very off topic from my WSS mission and try something a little different. I ended up with a sprue of the Warlord Games British Infantry and thought 'why not'...I'm surprised by how much I enjoyed painting these figures, I thought they would be too small and it's not an era/uniforms I've tried before. The detail on these figures is really good and if I were to try wargaming, I think this would be the perfect way of doing it. Any feedback on how I could improve these next time is very welcome!

Looks real good Rich!

Now and then you have to leave your comfort zone and do something different! That's good!

For that scale it is very neatly and precisely painted.

[Konrad]

Very clean and very precise work.
Very well done.

[MABO]

I second that. I like the faces and the shading in general.

Thanks for sharing those, Rich. I agree with the others, you have done a fantastic job. I was curious about the scale (the Internet tells me 13.5, a unique scale by Warlord) which makes for an interesting gaming scale. I have often thought that if I was starting fresh a smaller scale would be the way to go, but I would be reluctant to buy into a scale that is only handled by one manufacturer. Plus, my eyes couldn't handle it!
Tips for improving them? I don't think so!!

You have managed to do a great paint job on these diminutive figures, well done!

I have to say that I have a degree of admiration for Warlord Games in launching this Epic range, which is rapidly expanding. It does provide everything you need, often in one big box, to create a large tabletop army. Were I starting all over again, I'd look seriously at buying into this range,

However, I have far too many 1/72 Napoleonics already....starting the same armies all over again but in a different scale is one step too far.

Great work Rich!! I painted a fair number of the Warlord ACW Epic scale stuff. Once you figure out how to paint the strip of 10 figures it goes very quickly I found.

The figures are high quality, but your paintjob on them is superb, Rich.

Great work!
