Yamagata Masakage Cavalry unit for Saga

Okay with CincyCon in just a few days you all know by now that I placed my Saurus Knights on back  burner and I've been working in a chaotic environment the last few days (baby sitting grand kids, a dog, etc.) trying to finish these last couple of Samurai Cavalry for the game I am going to present.

I am leaving tomorrow and I am pleased to annouce that I actually finished them today! Yeah me! Seal coated and all.

I am also showing the figure I presented a few days ago with a finished base. The Samurai Cavalry I chose to paint are part of Yamagata Masakage's clan. Though I had already finished the sashimono's in a cream color thinking I was going to paint them something else. So you will forgive me if they don't show a white mon on a black background. But time was a factor as well as decal choices for mon, so change-o presto I will call it artistic license;)

Here are the photo's:

First up are my boys rocking it in a wild charge (images and sounds in Japanese of Hold the line! Hold the Line!, think of the movie Gladiator)!

Next up a few shots at different angles




...and lastly the figure I showed a few days ago that I was going to use as a proxy figure for a sub general on his finished base.




Off to CincyCon I go, I will try to take some pictures of games down there.

Cheers
Kevin
