Lupi Tupis
If you feel like running through the jungle naked painted half red and half black these are the guys to do it with! I Have been unpacking and found these fellows tucked away. I had forgotten I had them and now remember I have another thirty or so I have yet to paint tucked away somewhere.

or
The Goulburn Valiant Stormers present a Pulp Game on Sunday the 21st of November , at Goullburn Soldiers Club, corner of Sloane and Market Sts.
The Earl of Montrose is travelling through the border country;
Is he an Royalist?
Coventer?
Socialist ?
Or does he have his own agenda?
He reaches the little town of Upper Wuthering ......
Bring suitable minis if you have them? Otherwise I can supply,if you have your own ideas ie 'I would like to be an anarchist' let me know I can write you a spot into the narrative.
This will be a skirmish game of maybe 50 figures,assorted armoured cars,'planes et cetera and will be scaled at 1to 1 for realism
See you there

25mm Tigers!
Well here it is at last, all twelve stands of Wheat's Special Battalion Louisiana Volunteers complete and ready for action. I really enjoyed researching the uniforms for this battalion -each company wears its own uniform- and painting the figures. I have based them as per Regimental Fire and Fury and am looking forward to getting them on the table. Y'all better watch out...the Tigers is a comin'!

Praise be to the Golden Angel!
Here they are the good Brothers, all to a man quite mad, hauling through the lands the graven image of the golden angel. Eureka cultists with an added beard. The angel I purchased in Sydney a couple of years ago, can't recall who made it. The cart came from the spares box. It is guaranteed that the presence of this holy relic on the table automatically increases the chance for the average d6 to roll a 6 by an unholy factor!

25mm Wheat's Special Lousiana Battalion
Here is my 25mm Wheat's Special Battalion Louisiana Vols (The Tigers). The figures are a mix of Sash and Saber, Redoubt with some Foundry and Dixon hidden amongst the ranks. I have based the figures on 2" x 1" bases for use with Regimental Fire and Fury. I enjoyed painting this battalion as every company wears its own uniform - very early war. The only company to wear the famous Tiger Zouave uniform was Co. B. The rest wore a ix of red Garibaldi shirts, kepis with havelocks, slouch hats with one Co. wearing grey shell jackets and grey kepis - they left the battalion after 1st Bull Run, obviously overwhelmed by the sartorial splendour all about them! Now this photo has been subjected to Mr. Photoshop's attention and there are in reality not quite as many lads on the ground as the image portrays, but it looked so good I could not resist sharing it with y'all! By the way that is Roberdeau Wheat himself out the front, all 6' 4" 252 pounds of him!
