Afghan Tribal Force Update #3

 

I finished the next six of my Pashtun Tribal infantry that will be "carrying" firearms for one of my planned three units that will be classified as Irregular Infantry per the rules (my current favorite Colonial set) The Men Who Would be Kings (Paid Link). As previously stated, the figures are all from the Perry Miniatures Afghan Tribal Infantry (Paid Link) hard plastic box.

As mentioned in previous posts, I like the alternative basing method of 3, 2, 1 for The Men Who Would be Kings (Paid Link); especially for irregulars and tribal infantry. One of the advantageous is that it allows my creativity to go wild in creating "mini" vignettes.

Base with 3 figures.


Base with 2 figures.






Last but not least, one figure mounted on a base. Yep. He's the first to go when there is a casualty.


One last look:

  1. They look very nice once again Neil. I do like the idea of the mini dioramas for bases but there are draw backs.....our mate Julian has a "historical" King Arthur command base, where Arthur is standing on a large rock surveying the battlefield....but he has to suffer constant ribbing about his leader dragging a huge rock around the table as the game progresses!

    1. Of course he carries his rock of command wherever he goes! Truly one of the great warriors and leader of men of all time!

  2. More wonderful looking figures. I really like the range of poses and colours that you have used.

    1. Thanks James. I'm really having fun (and I don't like modeling) putting the figures together to create the different poses.
