some shots...
« on: January 26, 2007, 08:28:15 pm »
Finally I found some time again to take some pictures of my army and (growing) navy, hope u like them :). I also added some shots of my main fort, which is a mixture of all kind of soldiers u can imagine, so theres no real historical correctness in there (I dont car lol). And finally I found a simple program, which allows me to rezise my photos in a way that u can see them better.
For those who are interested in facts and figures:
   
   - the fort is about 4 meters long and 1,5 meters from the wall to the end of the room wide
   - it contains about 350 soldiers and 100 horses (I didnt count them)
   - we have 10 canons to defend the fort

So now I wrote too much, here they are:

1) a picture of a pirate ship with 5 crew members, actually more a trade ship, cuz one canon isnt much for a war ship  ;D:





2) some shots of the fort:

hey Gai,
i dont know how you do it but those pictures are great!!

and i also dont know how you put such a clear big picture of your new Romans in your signature area....can you do that for my samurais for me? (not too big though...not to show off but something i can identify with)

and i like your Romans too....how about posting some pictures of them? I like the way they carry their shields....was it your own idea? and the horn, was it customised?

there r still some more pictures to come, but I have to sort out the best ones first  :)
@pastifi: I think u mean the 'helmbush' (is it the right English term?)  of the one indian who is standing with some other meights at the horses? He is from set number 3873 -> http://collectobil.com/catalogue/items/3873.htm
Maybe u wonder if u could use his 'helmbush' for the Romans or some Greeks I have to say u that it doesnt fit with their helmets. it may fit if u custom the helmet a bit, but I didnt try it up to now.
