Good show! Keep at it!

As expected a lot of my time has gone into playing with the new computer, but i try to stick to minimum 50 minis per month. Seem to be doing okay for the moment so can't complain. If i can keep that up i can maybe get 600-700 models done by the end of the year!

A big plus for me is that my main projects are getting completed. Most things i have left to paint are side projects, or minis left over from earlier projects that have been abandoned. Still worth painting them up though, as:

- i can jump into new games/rules without having to do much painting effort.
- interest in the project might be rekindled
- i have something to do :)

Thanks all!

Just mounted the hastati on the painting sticks, hope i can start on them tomorrow!

petercooman

Hastati are halfway done, slowly getting there. Triari have been prepped for painting as well. Hope to get the punic project done before we go on our trip to rhodos in august! Really looking forward to give "ancient and medieval wargaming" a spin when they are finished!

In other news, just ordered "wargaming 19th century europe" by Neil Thomas.When it comes, i'll have all his wargaming books.i'll be picking the best from all his rulesets and adding that to where i think it would fit in the periods i play.

Got the hastati finished! Decided to give these yellow shields for ease of identification on the table, will do the triari in blue shields.





So: adding 66 to the model count: 411 models finished!


and the tally : About 5531 models are painted and 2093 models are still waiting for love.


only the triari left to do now and the punic project is done!
