Imperial Kindred Sea Guard
🕑 Added 2024-01-18 20:10:10 +0000 UTCAs the soldiers in the unit are posed in a relaxed manner, we're crafting a quaint scene in which the unit's strategos leisurely walks by, conducting an inspection of the troops.
I'm particularly impressed with the unintended, gradual evolution of a samurai-like aesthetic among the members of the Imperial kindred.
Following the miniature of the strategos will be his squire, bearing the bow and spear, accompanied by a griffhound.
The strategos will be depicted walking towards one of this week's heroes, a Sea Helm.
How does that sound to you?

Unless we added a platform like the Perry brothers and other historical brands have, I can't think of any solution. And I suspect that people might not like it very much.

A command staff , is a common feature in units arranged in a phalanx formation. Typically, these staffs measure half the distance that should separate soldiers in the formation. Initially, they served a practical purpose, as seen with Roman centurions or the "maestres" of the Spanish tercios. In modern warfare, command staffs evolved into symbols of status, often bestowed upon marshals and generals.

Love the miniatures but what is this guy holding in his right hand?

I love the miniatures you produce from an aesthetic perspective. However, a major issue I have is the posing of the feet. Most of the models are walking or in a pose where there is very little surface area in contact with the base. Many just have heals or tips of the foot in contact with the base. This makes them fragile for gaming pieces. This is an even larger concern for cavalry models. I would prefer if models can be posed in a way there is more contact area with the base. This would significantly reduce the chances of breakage when moving them on the game table.
