RP 65 Russo-Japanese War - Japanese Cavalry




 Catching up with units entered into the Analouge Painting Challenge again, these 4 units of Japanese Cavalry  for the Russo-Japanese War, earned me 288 points to add to my tally. The figures are all from Irregular miniatures and are based up for the Franco-Prussian set of rules "They Died For Glory".

The 1st Cavalry Regiment

The 4th Cavalry Regiment


The 12th Cavalry Regiment


The Guards Cavalry Regiment

Altogether!!

  3. Dammit Ray, I thought I was the only blogger in our little island that had been up long enough to post at this time in the morning!

    Lovely unit. That Army must be getting huge by now.

  4. Very nice Ray; you must have some sort of 'loyalty' arrangement with Irregular Miniatures, especially given the amount of lead that you have bought from them! Amazing.

  5. Excellent paintwork. Never bothered much with Irregular except for baggage items, may give them another look as they seem to paint up well.

  14. I think it's an automatic good job when I see the first picture and Rage Against the Machines starts playing in my head.

  15. I just realized that with all those figures you painted for the competition you must have enough material for a years worth of posts. Do your flags really have that wave in them or have you made it look like that by creating an optical illusion?

    1. I've got enough for at least another week and a bit...I think???? The flags have been bent slightly to give them a wave effect.
