    Ronin, the beginning

    Got the warband done and the leader modeled up and primed, hopefully next weekend I can get to painting them up, but what color for the robes? Stick with black or go white or yellow, decisions decisions. This is a Sohei monks warband by the way for the minis game Ronin: http://www.amazon.com/Ronin-Skirmish.../dp/1780968469

    Cool - looking forward to it. You have somehwt limited your color options by primering black, but a dark orange and gray would be cool.

    BTW, Have you checked out any of the Kensei models?

    Actually, my original intention was to highlight using blue on the black robes, and pick out details with other colors. The dead samurai will be painted more than likely in red armor. The minion monks will be black robes too, but more grayish as you mentioned. The Leader figure is a Kensei miniature as are his minions (not pictured). The dead samurai are Perry minis.

    SOhei Hero:


    his minions


    and the Perry dead Samurai lot, I just used three of them, I have the other two models in a bag

    Thanks, I am pretty happy with how they turned out. Seems like a few folks over at GHG have samurai and also want to give Ronin a try.
