Showcase: A Samurai to lead my Yamagata Masakage Ashigaru unit for Saga

This figure was built from Wargames Factory Samurai box set. While they are not the best sculpts or easy to put together, they do paint up really nice. I painted this one today to get a break from Warhammer 40K painting I've been doing. It was good to get back to painting a historical figure.

      Thank you Skip, and it only took me the same amount of time to do one as it would for you to do 8;)

    I second Skip's comments.
    Skip, I believe his war stare is directed at your samurai saga warband. If they are unable to take the field, the steppe nomads will have to do the honorable thing and dismount to oppose such a foe.

      Thank you Dave! Remember though, his Steppe Nomads are lead by Torok the Terrible, he knows nothing about honor;)
