Me and Glenn in 28mm and 15mm

I had a productive day yesterday and was able to finish five Napoleonic character figures with Glenn's head and mine.  I painted myself as a Napoleonic French officer in 28mm and 15mm.  Glenn got one 28mm and two 15mm figures.



The 28mm figures are painted as colonels.  The 15mm figures are generals in non-regulation coats.

The Glenn figure not pictured will go on an army command stand right next to Napoleon.  I also have another 15mm figure of myself which will get based with two aides de camp and serve as a corps or army commander.


If you like the idea of fielding a figure of yourself on the tabletop, head over to Minuteman Miniatures and see when you can get your likeness scanned!

I will now wait patiently for Mike and GP to come up with some American Civil War generals!  Fortunately I have myself as a viking war leader, a Roman legate, and a WII American officer left to paint.

    1. It is indeed cool. I have been grinning every time I look at the mini-me.

  2. EPIC! Well done. I'm lucky to get them to look like ANY face, let alone a particular one.

    1. It was pretty easy to just apply a wash and pick out the highlights. I did give a brief thought to breaking out the oil paints and going full bore, but I don't think I have the skill.
