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.

Being a very honorable Samurai Takeda was not one for Arquebus so archers is what he would be using.
I decided to make some barricades for Uesugi’s Arquebus squads. I used bamboo skewers and it did the trick.
So painting 20 Cavalry stands even using assembly line techniques took me almost three weeks but the results look pretty good in my opinion.
As I stated earlier I was going to have to paint up two armies so I decided that Tekeda needed some love too so I painted up the rest of the 40 man squad of Ashigaru spearmen and I also added decals (water transfers) I used Veni Vidi Vici decals and I love them the only problem is that they don’t make a large selection for Samurai.
Tekeda loved his Cavalry so I started to collect more for his force.
And here is my Samurai Kingdom of Men for Kings of War. I think we only played three games. Don’t you love friends that go “Oh look a new Shiny” ! Well it got me to start painting up my Samurai armies and yes you heard right. I am painting two Samurai armies because I know none of my friends will paint one up on there own.
Earth Dragon
And every general needs a friend so here is a Dragon. In Kings of War you can have War Beasts so I dug out this old Clan War miniature . It is an Earth Dragon I painted back in the late nineties.
Damn I am old =P
