Some terrain for my collection of Toysoldiers

Manufacturer:   Found at TEMU

Scale:   1:30 (60mm)


Hi again,

Some time ago I found some very interesting items at TEMU. I know that a lot of people have strange feelings about ordering at TEMU, but it often offers good 3d-printed pieces of terrain to affordable prices and the quality is really good. I also can recommend to buy your tufts or flocking materials there. If you do need a lot of tufts you can save much money there.

So - by the time my stock on material of wargaming terrain got rather good sorted and these days I found some pieces of terrain I forgot that I had them while tidying up my man´s cave.

I found some tree trunks, a fireplace and also a suckling pig on a spit. Not for 28mm, but in the perfect size to be used in combination with my collection of toysoldiers.

Within my collection of the FIW there is also a group of Roger´sRangers that is sitting or leaning on vats resting. So the suckling pig should be a great addition to this group of figures. Even the tree trunks and some rocks should look nice next to the Rangers.

So I got me my brushes and colours and started to paint those pieces of terrain. I am really happy with the result.


Cheers

Mike

Toysoldiers - JohnJenkinsDesigns - A comparison of the older and new versions of Roger´s Rangers

Manufacturer:   JohnJenkinsDesigns

Scale:   60mm (1:30)


Hi,

one of my favorite manufacturers concerning Toysoldiers is "JohnJenkinsDesigns".

I like this company because of the ranges they offer for FrenchIndianWar and for their style of miniatures.

One of these ranges is called "Raid on St.Francis". It is an older range and JohnJenkins decided to give some more figures to it - especially some more versions of Roger´s Rangers. Here you can find some more information about "The Raid on St:Francis".

The new versions are a bit more filigrane and the faces are a bit smaller. But the older and the new versions do fit perfect in my opinion.

So here they are.


Cheers

Mike

The force of my collection of Roger´s Rangers so far. A mix of the old and the new versions

The "old" versions. Not complete as there are still some poses missing. I especially like the three
guys sitting next to the barrels.

The new versions. Again not complete.

Toysoldiers - Roger´s Rangers from the ranges of ConteCollectibles

Manufacturer:   ConteCollectibles

Scale:   1:30 (60mm)


Hi again,

today´s post is about the beautiful figures from the "Roger´s Rangers" range of ConteCollectibles. 

These figures look really good. Unfortunately the website of ConteCollectibles does not show the whole range.

The style is a little bit different to the early ranges of JohnJenkinsDesign but in my opinion they could also be  mixed.


Cheers 

Mike



Another models from ConteCollectibles that are already within my collection. Only the guy with the keg is JohnJenkinsDesign for comparison of both manufacturers.

JohnJenkinsDesign - "Battle on snowshoes" - The hunt goes on

Manufacturer:   JohnJenkinsDesign

Scale:   1:30 (60mm)


Hi,

yesterday´s mail delivery got another figure of the range of "Battle on snowshoes" from JohnJenkinsDesign. So there are only three more sets left to complete this range in my collection. The hunt will go on. :)

The only problem is that you can´t display the whole range on a normal IKEA Billy-shelf adding some terrain without giving it a much too crowded look. So I think about to split the display into two or three parts in future. Maybe.... :)


Cheers

Mike

Only a little part of the too much crowded display.
