I’m sharing a few photos of a project that started many ages ago... During the Covid pandemic, I started fulfilling a dream and, piece by piece, putting together full metal Empire army from the 4th and 5th edition era. A huge variety of models, tons of character, true sense of historical fantasy, the incredible talent of the Perry twins ...
I don't have free time these days and I’m an extremely slow painter, but hopefully one day I’ll have every Empire model from this era painted. I’m still missing some models in my collection, but hopefully I’ll manage to get them. I guess I’ll paint them by retirement. Keep your fingers crossed for me
So far, I’ve painted:
• 20 halbediers
• 10 crossbowmen
• 10 archers
• 5 pistoliers
• mortar with crew
• mounted hero
• wizard
• warrior priest
A special thank you goes to
Naitsabes, a member of this forum, who kindly and selflessly sent me a set of original plastic crossbows a few years ago. Apart from horses and bases, these crossbows are the only plastic parts in the entire army.
As I just unfortunately found out, I don't have detailed photos of all the units. I’ll add them over time
My whole painted force in the background – fighting the civil war.
