Man! Those colours really pop! Right in the eye holes! Just right for the scale.
Thank you
V cool. Love the 3 base square with the officer.
Thank you 🙂
Your engineer could also be an “Exploring Officer or Intelligence Officer” that would add fun to a campaign ;-)
I did have a few such characters from Sharpe in mind when I was painting him.
Yes they are just the sort of nondescript character that is needed. I was thinking of adding a +1 on a generals dice that will help with confidence and decision making with General d Armee.
That’s a good idea, like that.
Cool update Stuart liking the officer with the dice
Thank you 🙂
Lovingly the progress on these.
I read the Bernard cornwell Waterloo book during lockdown- an excellent narrative approach to the story that was really insightful
Cheers Nathan. It’s one of my favourite books on the battle.
Another excellent update, I’ve been looking at ADC’s like you I enjoy adding ‘fluff’. Audible is my go to when painting so I shall be downloading the Waterloo book thanks for highlighting this - enjoy the hols
Thank you Graham 😊
Enjoy the holiday have fun with the family see you soon
Thanks Graham
Neato Stuburger!!!! Lovely stuff, lovely posts! Bon voyage en Amerique!!...Also stop being so self deprecating, you are knocking it out of the park 'Tube' wise for me. Trying to stop dribbling and having spod envy. 'Noice' bro, uber 'noice'!
Cheers dude 😊
Thanks Stuart for recommendation on that Waterloo book on audible. I did purchase it 👍
I hope you like it Paul
@@MiniatureRealms funny enough I had started to re-listen to Bernard Cornwells Waterloo again.
I’ve just listened to that myself. In many ways similar to the one I recommend, though with less detail, and Cornwell clearly thinks The Prince of Orange was as bad as he writes his character in the novel, while Clayton gives the slightly less (and maybe more modern) less damning view of him.
Looking great mate.
Cheers mate
Nice update. While my stuff is here I’ve decided to prioritise a few smaller projects that I can get some use out of straight away. I can then get stuck into the Epic project in earnest.
I enjoy podcasts and audio books when I’m painting too. Trouble is I’m so focused on the painting I find I only hear about 50% then have to go and listen again LOL.
The Peninsular War Atlas has arrived too so that’ll give me plenty to read, along with the stack of other Napoleonic period books. Once the Epic project gets underway though I’ll be able to give it my full attention, from the reading side too.
It’s great to be able to fully immerse yourself in a project, with books and audio to accompany it.
Top draw m8. Love your work
Thank you 🙂
Love the vlog mate
Thank you 😊
I like the dice idea. One die could be painted different colors per side to indicate the state of the unit.
That might be how I go, definitely more simple than painting on symbols.
Cool Vlog! Could you make a french infantry painting tutorial? I would really appreciate this. :)
They’re coming soon, just delayed a bit by work and an upcoming holiday.
Love the officer with the dice idea, many thanks.
Thank you 🙂
Superb terrain, figures, and square, well done!
Thank you 😊
Very nice single officer figures - got to love a Hogan figure! A neat idea with the dice tray - having the officer figure on that makes all of the difference and does add to the overall effect of the unit. 👍
Thank you 🙂
Good update, it's great to see this lot coming together. I use 7mm dice for shock in various games, using those Pendrakon dice holders. They work really nicely in games and don't stand out too much. The idea to make them into little vignettes is great. I read the Clayton book on Waterloo a few years ago and I agree it is an excellent overview of the battle and campaign.
Thank you Alex. I think I’ll end up using those little dice and holders for quite a few games now, a really simple and effect solution.
For my Epic ACW armies I’m using the 5mm Pendraken dice and frames combined with the wounded figures on a 20mm round base behind the unit. With the colour indicating the state of the unit and the value indicating the wounds taken. As I’m using the 3 bases to a Battalion your mounted Officer solution also solves the square problem for me; brilliant. In a further twist I’m saving all the middle non-command stands to make my British Guard units. I was going to put a mounted officer in the middle of a stand to represent the command - now I’m going to place it on a 20x20mm and use it the same way; brilliant².
I like the idea of using casualties on the base, I got the Epic ACW ones but never did anything with them. I’ll likely file the number off and add a 5mm dice and frame.
An excellent idea with that small dice tray. I think that came out looking quite nice. As soon as I finish my current Audible book I will give that Clayton book a look. If you are ever looking for a recommendation for something on the ACW to listen to just hit me up. My current listen and a few others I’ve picked up have been quite good.
I’m always open to book recommendations, I’ve got quite a few ACW ones lined up for future listening too, a lot recently became included free for Audible members.
@@MiniatureRealms Well I don’t think this one is free yet, but told Mike about it and he’s finished it far ahead of me. “The Confederacy’s Last Hurrah” by Wiley Sword. It details the Battles of Spring Hill, Franklin and Nashville.
Just added to my ‘wish list’, thank you 🙂
The longer it’s taking me to paint the figures, the more and more I’m considering getting the premised scenery packs. I just don’t want to spend time scratch building the sand pits and orchards, etc.
I’m also looking for something cool to identify each unit. I’d love to have some form of labeling for each regiment. But I still have time since i have loads to paint still. Thanks for sharing these videos! Really helps keep the motivation flowing
Thank you for watching and commenting Matt, I really appreciate it.
Looking good. Really like the officer idea. Where in the America are you going?
Thank you.
Off to Florida. My wife has a work conference there for a couple of days and that’s turned into a full family holiday as well.
The only reasonable 7mm blanks I have found are wooden beads (eBay / craft stores) - I would expect a company on Alibaba would make them but it would be by the thousands...The beads come with a hole and normally varnished but may suffice.
Maybe a 3D printer would create a few for a reasonable cost - resin I think would be best.
You can get red plastic ones with a heart in white - been thinking about two of these to denote damage for a 'three hits and you are out' marker.
Thank you Andrew, I’ll have a search again, I found loads of blanks and beads, just only 8mm or larger. 3D printing is a good idea.
Awsome man. Sorry if I missed it but does that terrain come in the set or can you get it seperate?
The ale Haye Sainte set is separate (though I think it might still be available in some bundles), each starter does have a building though. All Sarissa Precision, available through Warlord, but I’d imagine they will be available from Sarissa soon as well.
is there a way to get the file for those dice holders? I'm on the FB group but didn't see any discussions about these.
If you search Marc Kempster in the group you will find his posts, though I don’t think he’s made them available yet. That’s why I made my own for now.
...Have to say though: I do feel game engine props, for me, detract from the immersion (unless casualty bases or wrecked caissons or things appropriate model wise). Being a nobby hobby snob, I feel, record keeping should be kept off table. Though this may stem from attending conventions where gorgeous looking tables and figures were ruined (for me), (not sure on the rules system) by hanging plastic rings/washers on the minis to record cohesion/moral loss/casualties [80's-90's 'ish]. Big yak!!! Though in all fairness the practice almost represents a game engine slickness quite reminiscent of computer game HUDs. So horses for courses in conclusion. The officer dice marker tray did look well engineered and not too obtrusive for an obtrusive thing!.
I totally get you, I don’t mind a few things but some games can get out of hand. I think a lot of games where it’s most prevalent is where it’s important for it to be clearly visible what the status of many units/effects are. I actually quite like it where it can be recorded on cards off the table, but space can be an issue. Because Black Powder doesn’t have figure removal I think something is needed, but little casualty markers could be good as well.
@@MiniatureRealms Funny no one thought to put the Brigades' regiment's stamina at the base of or next to the Commander for tracking?
@@MiniatureRealms Smartphone, Tablets and or laptop apps could perhaps alleviate this.
@Rusty Gold I’d imagine loads of people already do
@Paul Brockhurst This is happening a lot more, I first used a system like that for Warmachine, you could use a mode where both opponents could see each other’s progress on the app as well. Warlord are working on a list building app (though it’s all gone a bit quiet on that front since the announcement video), there was tracking for ships on Black Sails etc. The problem is some people hate using tech as much as others hate game aids on the table.
Have fun in America, you Brits might not be that bad after all 😂
😂 Thank you
Oi!: 'you Brits...not that bad'!: Any more of that and I'll tell on you to the Queen and she will unleash her space lizard cohorts on you! ;)
