Samurai, At Last
« on: December 15, 2012, 18:12:52 »
So I finally make good on my promises to show you my Samurai!
Here they are.





These are my baddies, they are trying to overthrow the Daimyo (which are powerful, nobles).



Here is my Daimyo and his two best Samurai.
One of course bears a flag, and my custom naginata.





My Daimyo also has a bow and, in case of last defense, a wakizashi.



And finally here are some foot soldiers.
My Samurai are not as good as other people's on our forum, nor do I have as many, but I am quite happy with them. :)
Also, I have plans to expand. ;)

Here is a battle scene, because why post pictures of Samurai if they aren't fighting? :lol:



I hope you enjoy! :wave:

Awesome customs, I like tham very much. Excellent work, congrats.
The idea to use the white hat for injuries like a hat for a Samurai, was fantastic, very clever indeed.

I love the bad guys, WoT! Really convincing with 100% playmo parts already, and with my Jingasas, they'll look like factory made!

thanks for sharing WoT...finally ;D
...I agree that as along as they look great in our own, eyes, that's all that matters when we pose and smile just looking at them every now and then ;)
...then too, you have rooms for improvement (with cowabounga's new parts someday :) ) and extended hours of fun as your army increases :D
keep going WoT!!

very nice indeed, makes me think of "Shogun"  :love:

and you should never compare your stuff to others as being not good enough: it's your vision and your fantasy, and that should speak for itself.  :wave:

Thank you! I cannot remember if I got the idea from another person on the forum or not.
But I see samurai wearing headgear like this all the time in the manga I read. :D

Thanks! The red katana was a gift from Cheng! :wow:

Thanks! I am glad you like them. :)

Beautiful work WoT, I really like the daimyo

Thank you! I worked really hard on him. :)
I am looking for a way of attaching all his swords and quiver on him at the same time... ???

Nice group! ;)

Thank you Pynedor! :wave:
