Afghan Tibesmen - Colonial Wars

Turning my attention to another Colonial theatre of war, I have just completed my first batch of Afghan fighters. I have some more on my workbench and a promise of some more to come - I hope. These figures will provide an enemy for my Gurkhas and a British line unit, both of which are nearing completion.

These figures are 25mm by Miniature Figurines and I think they look quite nice when painted. Here is the first batch:

  1. Very nice Bob, I am currently painting Afghans in 54mm. I like your colour schemes and may copy them with my next batch.
    Regards,
    Paul.

    1. Hi paul, sorry about the late response. I think tribesmen look wrong in bright colours, so i went though my paint box and took out all of the greys, browns and dull greens, with some dark blue and used these randomly.

  2. Great figures Bob and lovely shiny paintwork. As Paul says, nice colour scheme.

    1. Thanks, I like such forces to be dressed in more sober colours.
