Master sculpts tidied up and pouring reservoirs fitted....
ready to started mould making; need to order some more mould making compund.
I've been building a cossack war wagon for 40mm figures; made from lego wagon wheels, cardboard, bamboo skewers and a cocktail stick.
I've been working on sculpting some 40mm cossacks, to home-cast a cossack army and/or some registered cossacks to fight with my Polish army. I've reworked the generic rider and musketeer I did in 2020 and I've added a ten more ...
Two options for riders (which I can vary with different weapons and modify with green stuff as needed)...
Officer (?), three variants to hold half-pikes (or standards) and six musketeer variantsAt the Palace, Captain Schmidt, handed the despatch to Mlle Lisette Givenchy (who tucked it away in her cloak). The Captain said - "Get it to the main commandery as quickly as you can"
Meanwhile, M'lady de Vintner had found out by some means that the despatch was being couriered to the commandery. She instructed her best man Rutger Roquefort and one of his cronies to arrange for the message to be intercepted (Roquefort would get his associate the Hook and his men to do his dirty work)To make my Tatar Segban I used up a variety of my own castings and made a few modifications - mostly the head-gear; in addition I made up a mould for a standing horse, casting some to go with the horse holders.
All painted and ready for action...Selected a few types of my castings Tatar, Polish Pancerni and Ottoman cavalry riders, to do some conversion to make up a unit of Elite Tatar warriors....(sons of nobles..)
