I finished basing the army of the Kingdom of the Obele, and it looks like this:
I hope to use this army in a battle with some troops from Sahel in the near future.

About Me
- Robert (Bob) Cordery
- I have been wargaming for as long as I can remember. One of the first toys that I was bought was a wooden fort that was garrisoned by assorted lead soldiers ... and I have never looked back! The first wargames book I bought was CHARGE! (although I had taken out [and repeatedly read] Donald Featherstone's WAR GAMES book beforehand [and many thanks to John Curry for republishing it!]). My first 20mm figures were the good old Airfix Guards Infantry and Band (in shocking pink!), soon followed by others as they were released, and by 1968, when I bought my first metal Hinton Hunt 20mm figures, I had a large collection of World War II figures, tanks, guns, and aircraft. I was a founder member of WARGAME DEVELOPMENTS and have been the treasurer and membership secretary ever since. I have also organised – along with Tim Gow - the annual conference (COW – Conference of Wargamers) for more that fifteen years. My main interests are wargaming any wars from 1850 onwards, although I have a special interest in Colonial, the Spanish Civil War, and World War II wargaming. I also have a special interest in wargames that use square or hex grids for movement and weapon ranges.
Nice little Army Bob - the Commanders/Leaders are suitably dramatic looking
ReplyDeleteMaudlin Jack Tar,
DeleteCheers! The two tribal leaders do look rather intimidating, don’t they?
All the best,
Bob
BOB,
ReplyDeleteA very good little army- nicely painted- well done. Cheers. KEV.
Kev Robertson (Kev),
DeleteI was lucky when I bought them. They needed very little work before I was able to varnish and base them.
All the best,
Bob
They look the part, Bob…should strike fear into the hearts of any invader.
ReplyDeleteMartin S.,
DeleteCheers! I think that these figures are going to see some tabletop action soon.
All the best,
Bob
A fine addition. Perhaps they will see action soon?
ReplyDeleteMark Cordone,
DeleteCheers! With luck, these figures should be in action soon!
All the best,
Bob
They're really looking good indeed Bob. I'm sure they will bring a lot of enjoyment to your tabletop.
