Shown is a samurai of the Kamakura period (1185-1333). Despite excellent equipment and elaborate armor he is in a bad situation. An enemy archer has wounded his horse while he spearheaded an attack. Our warrior fell to the ground and still lost his bow, which was the main weapon of the higher ranks in this time. Nevertheless, the rider is fighting back on their feet. He has his sword drawn to defend himself so with determination, and looking towards the onrushing enemy. Yet he is unbowed!

Available from AG Shogun and 2D when in stock ;)
The figure is called "Unbowed"

Hi
Thanks for looking ....Going by the elaborate armour
The Mongol invasion of 1281 looks likely
not by any means an authority on the samurai
though have always had an interest in the period

Hi
Had this flat for ages ...... Finally made a start .... think I found it a bit of a scary piece
wanting to do it justice with the brush

So far I am happy with the way it is going
Painted in Acrylics ....and using the new scale 75 inks
they seem ideal for flats ....just my thought
