Some terrain for my collection of Toysoldiers

Manufacturer:   Found at TEMU

Scale:   1:30 (60mm)

Hi again,

Some time ago I found some very interesting items at TEMU. I know that a lot of people have strange feelings about ordering at TEMU, but it often offers good 3d-printed pieces of terrain to affordable prices and the quality is really good. I also can recommend to buy your tufts or flocking materials there. If you do need a lot of tufts you can save much money there.

So - by the time my stock on material of wargaming terrain got rather good sorted and these days I found some pieces of terrain I forgot that I had them while tidying up my man´s cave.

I found some tree trunks, a fireplace and also a suckling pig on a spit. Not for 28mm, but in the perfect size to be used in combination with my collection of toysoldiers.

Within my collection of the FIW there is also a group of Roger´sRangers that is sitting or leaning on vats resting. So the suckling pig should be a great addition to this group of figures. Even the tree trunks and some rocks should look nice next to the Rangers.

So I got me my brushes and colours and started to paint those pieces of terrain. I am really happy with the result.

Cheers

Mike

Toysoldiers - "Tyrolean Rebellion" from PianoWargames - A shephard with his dog

Manufacturer:   PianoWargames

Scale:   60mm (1:30)

Hi,

today´s post is again about some selfpainted toysoldiers from PianoWargames. Normally in 28mm, but again scaled up to 60mm and printed in 3d.

This time another civilian from the range of the Tyrolean Rebellion - a shephard with his dog.

I am not a specialist into dogs, so I had to search the web for some templates of a fitting race. What I found was a Berner Sennenhung (Bernese Mountain Dog ?). I put these pictures also within this post.

Cheers

Mike

Toysoldiers - Newest additions to my collection

Manufacturer:    JohnJenkinsDesign

Scale:    60mm (1:30)

Hi again,

today´s post is about my newest addition to my collection of toysoldiers scaled 1:30. I bought them on eBay for very good prices as some of these items had been sold half of their original price. Lucky shot. :)

The only thing was that I had to wait a longer time to be able to unpack the figures. I had to go to hospital for two weeks and my release had been yesterday. So guess what had been one of the first things to do after my arrival at home. ;)

The figures I bought are all from JohnJankinsDesigns and are some good reinforcements for the ranges I am already collecting. 

I was able to get at least two further figures for my collection of Rome and its enemies. A gallic cavalryman and a mounted Roman General. So my collection of "Little Alesia", as I call it, now looks like this.

My "Little Alesia" so far - a mixture of mainly JohnJenkinsDesings, some King&Country,
FirstLegion, Kronprinz Toysoldiers and some figures from a Russian Manufacturer I don´t 
remember.

Attack on the gate.

The "new" mounted warrior ...

... accompanied by his fellows. The figure in the middle is from King&Country.

The Roman General ...

... who commands a very, very small unit of Roman Cavalry. I have to point out that these figures
are always produced in limited numbers. Some of the ranges are hard to get for good prices. So it
will take me some years to increase the collection.

The following figures are belonging to my beloved ranges concerning the FrenchIndianWar.

Another Fifer for my British march column

Also got a marching British Grenadier ...

... and an officer ,,,

... because you cannot have enough men for building a good looking 
march column.

Two British soldiers firing their muskets ...

... because you also cannot have enough men for building a good looking firing line either.

I also got another British cannon ...

... so my collection of the range of "The Battle on the plains of Abraham" so far looks like this.

The last figure of the reinforcements had been this guy. Though I don´t collect the range
"The fur trade" this figure was half of its normal price. So it was no doubt to get it. 

And the figure fits perfectly to the Roger´s Rangers of my existing collection. Maybe he was a
trapper hired for scouting acions or something like that. Who knows? :)

I hope you liked this pictures and got some inspiration for our hobby. Keep on gaming, collecting and having fun playing with toysoldiers or wargaming minis.

Cheers,

Mike
