Militia, Civilians, and a Dewback.

Not a very productive weekend. However some painting was achieved. First up is a rather neat metal Britannia figure, that I got as part of an order a friend placed some time ago. In CD terms, this is a motorcycle RPG stand. Gauranteed to draw fire, first time, every time.

I also painted up the first of my camels from the Airfix Arabs set. In CD terms, this can either be a mounted command, or a mounted patrol stand. Again, it will be used as a Haradi militia stand.

A couple of nice militia stands. Three more camel stands to go!

Another view of camel and motorcycle.

I also started to paint up some plastic Arabs of unknown manufacturer. These were purchased on a world famous online auction site by a friend in a batch of 100 figures. They are made of white hard plastic, and have a crude factory paint job that makes Micro Machines seem like works of art.

These are the first ones I have repainted. GW Devan Mud wash highlights the form fitting burqa on the right. The sculptor clearly has a background in producing fantasy figures.

Lots of Arab Civilian stands ready to repaint. Even Simple Green won't remove the paint from these guys.

And now with added Hornby sheep.

I also started based up some Sandtrooper stands. I am still toying with the idea of converting some other figures to add to their numbers.
