Love the range of Commonwealth troops available across these boxes…thinking those Sikh and Muslim heads would be good for simple conversions of Warlord’s plastic British Zulu War troops to Indian Army of same period…
That’s a great idea! I have plenty left over so the use of those in a British based Zulu, Afghanistan or Sudan army would be a great idea! Thanks for the comment 👍🏻
@samsolopeeps well done on your progress! I need to crack on with my DAK, but it is quite a large army and has dented my enthusiasm… so trying to build my DDAY US airborne ready for 80th anniversary this June.
@@theministryofminiatures so I have managed to paint 1500 points in 10 days! Now that's slightly crazy but I have been trying to do 5 men or a tank a day. Then I do lots of bits in batches. Yesterday I did Tufts and today I finished the bases for example. So now I got 1500 of 8th Army next and got my phase 2s looking at me now lol. I also sometimes go back and add stuff later. Your deadline sounds like a good motivator! Sure it will look great. Really loved the latest battle report
Excellent thank you, back to some more battle reports from next week... tomorrow is my Sikh Army, and Monday my SAS/LRDG... they are my favourite and look really nice, so look out for the desert raiders! Thanks again 👍
Yep, Olaf was interested in running something a little different than usual so he did South Africans as part of his army… they feature in a recent battle report. Also, there was only so many figures I had the will to paint 😂

Thanks for the comment 👍🏻
I have borrowed this approach now for my Germans of having a few models to drop in generic models.
Excellent news, gives your force some flexibility and allows you to use them in different ways!
Good luck with them 👍🏻
What size force are you doing?
@@theministryofminiatures I have built about 1500pts this week. Will be priming today! Probably will add 500pts of different vehicles in the future.
@samsolopeeps great size army 👍🏻
That should give you enough figures for a great variety of games.

Great looking Army. already subcribed :)

Yes the very unique Lemon Squeezer hats that the NZ's was known for.
They are nice figures, and I just had to have a squad in my army.
Thanks 👍🏻
South Africans?
