Hi all, I have seen a few Chinese 10mm figs on the net, can`t find any building though..
Will Pendraken be adding these figs to their collections?
Khwarazmian figs any suitable about?
And does anyone have any decent pics of Jin, Sung, Qin Chinese....?
Thanks

I don't know of any Chinese or Oriental buildings in 10mm

I use the 6mm buildings from http://www.muraminiatures.com/ for my RJW games

Keep looking at the Mura buildings and Baccus Samurai, then I look at the cost of buying what I'd want to get and decide I need to start doing the lottery :)

These are Jin (115-1234).



These chaps are from the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) but the bloke at the back on the right looks suitably peasant enough and the rest don't look as though much has changed over the centuries.



I have shedloads of the Chinese figures you refer to and some of the pics on the Irregular website are of my Chinese and Mongol figures. I used mostly greys for clothing because black in 10mm is not really an option, with different coloured edgings for variety. From what I can gather the helmets and shields were supplied so may have been the same colour within the unit. 

There is also this to give some insight into the Chinese use of colours.
