What I've Been Working On - Part Three

 I managed to get a few things finished up this weekend, so I took a few pictures that I will present to you.

This is a series of Victorian ladies I sculpted a while back. You'll notice that there are a few head swaps in the group. Their attire would be suitable for games set in the 1870's through the 1880's and perhaps a little later.

This pair are Annie-Elizabeth and Auguste Chamot, proprietors of the Hotel de Pekin. Both of them took an active role in the defense of the European legations during the Boxer Rebellion.

The gentlemen pictured above are civilian volunteers in the defense of the European legations at Peking. The ladies are dressed in 1890's to 1910's fashion and will act as the female contingent of besieged Europeans for my 55 Days At Peking game.

Here are nurses and a servant that will also populate the table in my 55 Days At Peking game.

The last of the 15mm figures is Ella Hattan, La Jaguarina, Queen of the Sword. While she was not at Peking, she was an amazing woman. She defeated over 65 male adversaries, many fencing masters and retired because she ran out of opponents. Her specialty was mounted saber, but she was equally proficient on foot with any sword.  

This is a Chinese Fei-Hsieh, or 'Fast Crab". These were used as river police boats from the 1860's onward. This model is in15mm scale and was printed on an Ender 3 FDM printer.

Here is a baggage transport elephant. This is the same elephant I use to haul the 40 pdr Armstrong cannon with, it just has a 3D printed resin baggage load added.

Next, from the 'What were the Austrians Thinking' files is the 4P Press Models version of the Lloyd 40.05 fighter. Like their bomber, the 40.05 was summarily rejected by the Austrian government. But, unlike the Lloyd bomber, it has been verified that the Lloyd 40.05 could actually fly. And yes, it is another Austrian plane in which the pilot cannot see in forward from the pilot's seat.

And so you won't think we only make goofy Austrian planes, here are some lovely Italian models. These are the Ansaldo SVA 10 (above) and SVA 5 (below). The SVA 10 is an SVA 5 with a lengthened cockpit to allow for an observer, bombardier, tail gunner.

Finally, in honor of the NFL playoffs, we have the Paris Musketeers of the ELF, the European League of (American) Football. The Musketeers finished second in the West Division this year.

Thank you for visiting and happy gaming!
