28mm Semi-Naked Female Samurai and Sheepdog from my Secret Santa Clause 2015.........

.........but no sheep!

*Not painted by me, a gift from Santa.........

I actually have the female samurai figure but she remains unpainted (Colonel Bill's Wargaming Depot) part of the Belt Fed Gaming range (Tome Gozen Samurai), I received her at the Broadside Wargaming Show 2014 as a prize for a Posties Rejects best in show game. The sheepdog....not a clue?

I think I know the painter but not a hundred percent sure though.........





Very usable figures........


Tomoe Gozen (巴 御前?) (1157?–1247), pronounced [tomo.e], was a late twelfth-century female samurai warrior (onna bugeisha), known for her bravery and strength.[1] She is believed to have fought in and survived the Genpei War (1180–1185).


Onna-bugeisha (女武芸者?) was a type of female warrior belonging to the Japanese nobility. Many women engaged in battle, commonly alongside samurai men. They were members of the bushi (samurai) class in feudal Japan and were trained in the use of weapons to protect their household, family, and honour in times of war. Significant icons such as Tomoe GozenNakano Takeko, and Hōjō Masako are famous examples of onna bugeisha.

Warhammer 40K Goblin Soviet Squad from Kromlech........

........otherwise known as the Spitsnasty!


The orks in the Orkmacht look with disdain towards their smaller brethren who follow the code but in their own way, considered crazier and drunker than any other unit. Resin minis from the boys at Kromlech, painted  a while ago..............

I give you the Spitsnasty!

Orkmacht Games Workshop Gretchin Crew from Forge World......

.........also known as Day of the Grots!

This is how Games Workshop describe Gretchin......

Gretchin mobs make up for their shocking lack of quality with sheer quantity. The natural cowardice and feeble-limbed incompetence of the Gretchin race does not predispose them to the arts of war, and a typical Grot would prefer to have his head buried in a sporehole than to actually participate in a proper battle.

For the meaning of a sporehole ask Ray, he has one!

Painted up a while ago for another project that stalled back in the day! They are also resin.......
