I finished off some remaining ECW command models for my New Model army. These are a mix of Foundry and Warlord metals.
There is a nice command vignette with meeting held over a map on a drum.
I experimented with using rare earth magnets to make a base for the commander with ensign, but it didn't work very well, two magnets aren't strong enough to hold the figures securely, and there were a real bugger to glue to the base because they would rather stick to each other. This stand has a commander modelled obviously after Dion Phaneuf (captain of my favourite hockey team the Toronto Maple Leafs)
This guy here is a ranter (religious zealot) to inspire the troops (and antagonize the enemy)...
The grenade-boy is very nice:
Here is the back view of the commander in chief in conference:
Up next: Celtic slingers
I love "grenade boy"! He is very cool. You are dead on about the magnets; they are brutal to get right. I think you are on to a great idea, though!
