I can't wait to find out whether or not anyone's going to correct me on 10mm not being a 'scale...'

10mm miniatures are enjoying something of a renaissance recently! With Wargames Atlantic stepping into the ring, starting with their Ashigaru and Samurai boxes, it's an exciting time to be into large battles that fit on a single table. Warlord Games' 'Pike and Shotte' is at least one set of rules which allows gamers to play out battles of the Sengoku Jidai period; if you've got other favourites or suggestions, drop them in the comments!

...or just mix a bottle of each together and done!


BASE:
After gluing down the rear rank, apply a layer of Vallejo Brown Earth texture paste - a long tool will be helpful here to reach between the ranks, but you can space them out enough that it shouldn't be difficult. Once dry, drybrush with Vallejo Dark Sand, then add some thinned-down PVA dots and sprinkle with flock. I've used old-school model train flock for the brighter finish. Paint the base rim in Brown Sand, and done!
