On the left is a CP miniatures 28mm Djinn, and on the right the original 10m GW Warmaster Araby Djinn. While the 28mm figure is a fair bit bigger, he's not too big to work.
This is another fairly new army. Initially I had a few Dwarven infantry units from the BoFA set who where part of the Dogs of War army. Then a few cannons where added (initially as allies for KoW Men) and some gyrocopters. This just about gave me a playable force for Warband. Then the excellent Copplestone LoTR dwarves were available on sale - so this was enough of a reason to add these to the army - giving me a good solid core of infantry. Now I just need to paint these chaps. The main element missing from the army are missile troops. As these are definitely a slow burner project, I am in no rush to get these and will wait and hope that Copplestone will make some Dwarves with bows. At the minute I'm steering away from some of the GW elements like the orange bearded Troll Slayers. But I am happy with the engineering and black powder elements.
Had a sort through the lead pile of my Araby figures. Lots of cavalry being the summary! TB Line Knights 5 units, 35 figures Heavy cavalry, 2 units, 12 figures Camel riders, 5 units, 30 figures (+ 3 spares) Mounted command 3 figures Crossbows (need to find these, probably 3 units worth, already base coated and on painting sticks) Games Workshop Horse Archers 7 units, 28 figures Pistol cavalry, 4 units, 16 figures Pack camels 2 Camp figures 6 & market stall Pendraken Pack camels 6 figures Civilians 12 figures Magister Militum Light cavalry 22 figures (too small to use with TB Line cavalry) Units mentioned above are for HoW on 40mm square bases.
The finished reinforcements, on the left, CP Models Squid Faces, behind them a GW Storm Giant, then in the middle of the back two rows, Crabs and Starfish from CP models, on the right water Sprites from Magister Militum (15mm). On the front row at the left a couple of Mind Flayers from Pendraken and then more Water Sprites. These are 28mm figures from CP Models, the guys at the back are Squid Faces, and the front ones are crab swarms.
