Sound The Trumpets, The Minions Of Shaytan Approach

Today my copy of the Trench Crusade rules arrived, completing my Kickstarter pledge reward for Trench Crusade. I have, of course, immediately flicked through it (it's gorgeous) and plonked some of my Iron Sultanate minis onto the painting table alongside the more Maiden Guard that I'm working on.
 

It's a beautiful book, nicely laid out, and with really high production values. Well worth the wait

The Iron Sultante troops I have at the moment ready to paint are three Azebs, a Sapper, and a Jabirean Alchemist. I have some other stuff I can print too, such as a Yuzbasi (the commander), more Azebs (including a really swanky standard bearer) and a Scripture Guardian, which seems like an interesting creature.

The front two are a bit out of focus, but they are the Jabirean Alchemist (front left), a Sapper (front right) and then behind them three Azebs, two (left and centre) with muskets and the third (right) with a flamethrower. Death to the infidel!

As for the Maiden Guard, well, it's strangely comforting to paint them now...

I'm really proud of my kitbash for the Battle Standard Bearer (front right) and the 3D prints are all really quite nice - reasonably crisp, paint up well, look the part when complete


So although nothing finished today, a lot started and hopefully I'll be a nice way along towards completion of the Maiden Guard by the end of the weekend. We'll see, as I so often say on this blog...
