Bloody Miniatures - The Fighting Men
In this third, and most likely final (for a while) installment of Bloody Miniatures showcase, we turn our attention to the warriors and fighting men.*
(*Since then another order has arrived, so I will be able to post some later.)
In the first image, a forlorn hope, fighting with halberds and partisans.

A Chance Find
"Battle Campaigns" is a miscellaneous blog to find my solo campaigns in one place instead of leaving them around R&C."Llamamen vs. Squirrelmen" is a pulp/sci-fi/grimdark future parody project that stems from my bored maths classes in grammar school.

Takar Chalun's Mercenary Army
Takar Chalun* is a mercenary warlord, currently employed by the Cities of Bandar Tuk, serving with High General Leuha Taton's Army of the Eastern Approaches. His warband is small but effective; the War God Judha Puduganur had smiled on him many times, and he became wealthy and influential in the court of Rehemana.

Trashy Fleets - 1/1000 Royal Navy pre-dreadnought

Trashy Fleets - The Trashy Fleet Spirit
Here's the motto of the Trashy Fleets Pre-Dreadnought project, explained in detail.
Make It Free
Ordinary household items like cardboard, corkboard, plastic tubes etc. are perfect material for some trashy ship modelling.
One can also use leftovers from model kits for secondary armament, conning towers, railings, masts etc., the possibilities are limitless.
If It's Not Free, Make It Cheap
Junkyards, online trading groups and flea markets are the favoured hunting ground of the scratchbuilder, and he will use anything and everything he can get for cheap.
Make It Good Lookin'
Of course the above does not exempt one from historical examples such as well-proportioned and functional vessels. Everybody likes trash-bashing, but there should be a standard. Trashy Fleets aren't made up of scale models, but one can keep close.
