It Came from the Lightbox: Bushido Minimoto

I finally got around to painting the second wave of Minimoto models (and a couple of ronin available to them). Most of them have been assembled for, uh, most of a year and boy were they frustrating in a really surprising way.

I got some new glasses a few weeks ago and it is very clear that I really needed them when I built these models. Every time I looked, I found a new mold line that I’d completely failed to notice and address when I put them together.

Hopefully the new specs keep there from being a repeat.

Unrelated to Bushido: I printed off some Chronomantic Cogs and painted them up in a minute.

It Came from the Lightbox: Wolf Clan

I picked up the new Shiho Wolf Clan models for Bushido when they went up for sale during Adepticon, and knocked them out last week.

They’re a far, far cry from perfect (they’re pretty phoned in, to be honest), but “Done > Perfect” has been the theme for my 2020 hobby, and I kind of like the fairly limited palette here. They’re painted, now, and I can feel comfortable building the next round of Minimoto to put into the painting queue.

Minimoto & Ronin Group

It Came from the Lightbox: Bushido Minimoto

I painted these up over the summer and never posted them. So, here they are!

I chose Minimoto because it was a small faction, so it was kind of easy to just get everything and paint it (relatively) all at once.

All of the Ronin available to Minimoto (minus a couple I couldn’t get my hands on)

These are most of the objectives I painted for Bushido, plus the same Tanuki statue that inspired my Infinity table
The table I built for Bushido: mat is cut down from a FAT mat, the buildings are from Sarissa Precision, and the vegetation from random Amazon sellers.
