About the Project

This is my Samurai project I stated a few years ago and will be doing for a few more years to come. This is not only miniature painting but conversions, terrain, and rules. As well as some other things I am sure that I am interested as well as inspiration. I hope you will enjoy my journey into the world of Samurai Wargaming.

So I got about about two hours of painting done today and I think that makes up for the lack of painting the last two days. I realized that I started wrong by painting the pants and shirt first instead of the armor. I usually paint the armor first so I can dry brush and not worry about the other base colors. I will remember this for other 30 I need to paint. So today I dry brushed the armor did some black out line and applied tan on the banners.

30 minutes a day.

So I started painting my 40 Ashigaru Yari block and decided to go back to my routine of painting at least 30 minutes a day 10 troops at a time to keep it from becoming overwhelming. I will try to post photos every day to show you all just how fast it will go.

This was 45 minutes of painting and was able to get my basecoats done.

Now where did I put those darn decals at?

The models are Warlord plastic ashigaru and the pavise are scratch built using wood craft stick and coffee stirs.
