Recent AHPC Miscellany

Recent AHPC Miscellany

First of the smaller AHPC entries is this Afghani Imam from Badger Games that was included in the give-away bag at a show (remember them?) a couple of years ago.

One day I may paint up those Empress Miniatures long languishing in the lower strata of the lead mountain.

I’ve painted up a pair of Vivandière from the pack I picked up from Brigade Games, they are really lovely sculpt by Paul Hicks.
Vivandière/Cantinière is an synonymous term for the ladies who accompanied the French regiments with their barrels of wine or brandy to sell to the troops.
I’d recommend this Wikipedia article for more information on their history and role.
When I was last in the UK in 2019 I picked up some of the lovely new Crusader Miniatures Senegalese and got them painted up for Chain of Command. Some pics here, here and here. I decided that they needed some armoured support and the Chain of Command list allows them a Renault R-35 so I ordered one from JTFM last year and it’s sat in the box since.

The crewman is rather fancy with his droopy Gallic moustaches and silk scarf.

I don’t have any appropriate decals so the blue ace of spades is a free-hand bodge. I also did quite a bit of weathering but it does not show up that well in the photos.

I needed something to represent a Tomb, so a trawl of the local games stores turned up this Wizkids „Heroic Statue“ a few times, and the plinth could hold some remains, so, on Saturday I pulled the trigger and bought one.

It’s quite a simple paint job, the statue was done in VMC Bronze with a couple of washes of AP Green Tone to give a verdigris effect, while the plinth is from a basecoat of VMC Basalt Grey with some staining and lichen patches stippled on.

Finally for now a pair of Aides de Camp, from Brigade Games. 
This vignette will be especially useful for our General d’Armee games to represent two ADC assigned to a brigade.

Victoria picked me up some more troops from Brigade Games for my birthday back in January and included in the presents was this pair of French Aide De Camp transferring orders.
