Hi everyone!
I painted up the first 2mm infantry for my Scanian War project. This base represents one battalion of the Darlarna Regiment from 1676. I am working on the Swedish troops for the battle of Halmstad at this time. It was interesting to paint these tiny miniatures. I am waiting to get some sand to add to the base and then paint the bases green and only add a little flocking to the base.

Let me know what you think.
Have a good weekend!
Are you sure the buttons are the right colour.... :)
ReplyDeletelol I needed that!! Thanks for the good joke! One thing I am not good at is painting eyes on 28mm figures, no need to worry about that with 2mm :-)
DeleteLittle, colorful, beautiful...and most impressive!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I have more ready to paint up I am just waiting to see how the bases will look once I add the sand for texture.
DeleteCrackin little fellows!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ray! I like them, Hopefully I can build the two armies relatively quickly.
DeleteI like those..really looks like a pike and shot formation.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I agree they look like a good formation of pike and shot from the time!
DeleteI'm assuming the tall figures are pike formations?
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of the scale for ease of prepping an army and fitting a battle on the table. We'd had discussions in my local group about doing a "grain of rice" Zulu army for Roarke's Drift, but this looks a lot more manageable.
