Cossack Cavalry Models

As we move nearer to the back of beyond campaign, my thoughts have turned quickly to finishing stuff off so that uninterrupted gaming can begin.

Projects on the blocks at the moment are finishing off a chinese fortified town, walls gate hose and some adobe buildings to do, completion of the White Russian Army, 12 more cossacks, one heavy machine gun and a field gun, the completion of a chinese army with mounted generals, 20 red spears, 10 more dare to dies and some armoured cars and baggage.

Re reading Elric novels at the moment and fancied doing some miniatures in that style. Using Warhammer Dark Elves as a basis I put this one together, in the books Melniboneans where yellow or bronze armour , so I tried yellow, its a bit yellow though............
