a sneak peak at the Oronegreans, and a donkey

yes I did put and a donkey, actually despite my careful planning I managed to get the donkey complete before the Oronegrean infantryman. anyway I thought it best I show these 2 off even though the rest of the Oronegreans are not yet complete (go see the projects blog as it has their current state in the latest post) but here they are... also Any of you who are interested in the 18th century or just great miniature story lines should go over to Archduke Piccolo's blog he has been taking us through a great story in an interesting imagi-nation, and now after a brief break he is carrying on with the story.

I have been begging asking if he could use some Oronegreans as mercenaries but that's just because I am feeling Jealous inspired by this story :-D Anyway here are the newly painted Oronegrean urr inhabitants

on board the Paul, perhaps  a soldier is guarding the ship and its precious cargo of donkeys?

the new style of basing is something I am still working on, though the magnetic sand I mix with the PVA to get the ground texture does add some fun to the other wise dull bases

IF I was to send these to Ion as mercenaries I would have to pain the golden arrows on the soldiers arm to show he has served overseas as a mercenary

a look at some painted on little flowers on the bases

and one Final picture for good measure.

that figure is my first 18th century Oronegrean soldier and although Yes I did do some pirates/ sailors before him he certainly marks my entrance into this era. Of coarse one final thing I need to do is say Hello to the blogs latest followers
