Cool vid! I'm a big fan of the 1/72 figs but I gave up trying to convince the guys I play with to use them. Luckily there are a lot of very nice plastic historic figs out in 28mm now a days.

Most "scale" figures (ie 1/72, 1/48, etc) tend to be more realistic compared to most figures when compared to your mm based figures. Your 28 mm/30 mm figures are heroic type figures. The great thing about the "scale" figures is that you can get lots of other "scale" models real cheap compared to others. Compare prices of model tank kits to GW ones. Not that there's anything wrong with your mm based figures.

you can have bigger wargame battles with the 1/72 military stuff, on the same size board your battle could be double the size...

Before you paint those figures, make sure to wash them well in soap and water. You will need some sort of primer, or the paint will flake off, try using gesso, there are some great vids for this and it works great, I do this all the time as I mainly paint 1/72 WW2 figures, but using techniques I learn on KZitem for 28mm figures.

What you SHOULD look up if you like the idea of spiders that big, is all the neat critters from the Carboniferous era of life on the Earth. Not only huge plants, but giant insects. Search: Meganeura, Pulmonoscorpius, and Arthropleura to name just a few. Its a fun era of the earth when the enitre world was super saturated with oxygen, allowing critters that didn't have lungs as we knew it, and small ancestors to the dinosaurs to thrive. Plants too.

Awesome review of them.. The british and Zulu war was very tragic for the British.. They thought there fire power and suporiority was going to win.. Zulu nation changed all that for them.. Such an execuation the British suffered during those fights. Good stuff and interconvertering 2 different kits!

They had a terrible General at isandlwana,he had a great idea (not)of splitting up his force before finding out his enemies disposition. He never lived it down and rightfully so !

@TheGobberShop He's right. I think a lot of people would consider the possibilities of zulu and dinosaurs steampunk enough, especially for the game he's planning. I've been active in the steampunk community for about 4 1/2 years now, both online and at local meet ups. Also have to say that this isn't the first zulu steampunk or aetherpunk idea I've seen, and defiantly not the most off topic, out there idea of what can be steampunk. Remember, steampunk if a very flexible thing to most people.

@terrainaholic dude dont you know they have to have top hats and random bits with watch gears all over them, and be located in england to be steampunk. :P on a more serious note, ignore these naysayers, there are alwayse people (especially in niche groups) who think there version of something is the only correct one. In my opinion this is a purely fantastic blend of h.g. wells and sir conan arthur doyle. Great vision. I'm looking forward to what you do next with this project.

Hey Bud! It's already mentioned but I think you're using "steampunk" as a general sci-fi description. No big, I think most people know what you mean. :) Also, you can't really compare GW stuff to any scale. They kind messed things up. Just put a Rhino next to 10 spaces marines... You really think 10 space marine can fit in that thing with a crew? I wanna start doing civil war dios though. That would be really cool and involved project.

@TheGobberShop The victorian era was from 1837 to 1901 and the zulu war was in 1879 so I'm sorry I was TOTALLY WRONG on my historical back ground time reference and nothing fantastical in nature EVER occurs in the steam punk genre so I TOTALLY APOLOGIZE for leading EVERYONE astray in this video. Please forgive me!!!!!!

1/72 scale is not equivalent to 28mm. 28mm is 1/56, therfore larger and a great deal more potential for detail. Also, LOL, the plastic frame you take the figures from is a sprue (sprooooo) not a spur. That's what a rider uses to encourage his horse to go faster.
