Malta Harbour

 Hi Gents,

I was asked recently if my Malta 1565 collection was still being added to the answer was yes so I thought I would take a few shots to remind me where this is going.

Some of the fleet arrive at Malta



I have a fleet of ships and small boats that will be used for this collection
Change of period for this but again I think it will work well for Malta.
Harbour tower


I need to tidy the ships up a little bit.
A couple of minor conversions on games workshop figures

Service continues.

A shot of a small boat

Troops disembark

All painted by Dave Jarvis

The figures are from various manufacturers

A birds eye view


Front figure is my favourite from this batch
That's all for now thanks for stopping by.
Willie

    Great stuff Willie, your custom built terrain looks fantastic as a 16th century setting. I love all the different figures you have used to show the Knights of Malta.

    POSITIVELY FANTASTIC!!!

    Willie, it already looks amazing!

    But speaking for myself, when you have the armies and fleets ready to go, and actually play a game, or even just walk the figures and models through the historical siege in photos, it is going to be one of the most exciting miniature wargaming posts I've ever seen. I look forward to that day!

    Also, whatever you did for the lighting of these pics worked wonderfully!

      Ethan
      One day I will game with these rest assured.
      The lighting was all natural coming from the roof lantern in the dining room where you saw the set up at Christmas the pics did turn out well.

    You don't do things by half when the boat comes in, Willie.
    Wargaming on a grand scale.
