Very nice indeed - you didn't need shield transfers!!!  :-bd

You've already painted and based the first army in less than a week?....Blimey  :o

Like the labelling solution you came up with too.

Look forward to some BBDBA once a few more armies completed  :)


Though much is taken, much abides; and though
we are not now that strength which in old days
moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are.

It had the added bonus that I couldn't do the lawns

Borrow a few sheep....There must be someone near you who's got some.

I'm VERY impressed with the piccies*.... :-bd Top man !!

Cheers - Phil.

*Especially the speed you've got all those done. :o

They are really nice figures with lots of easy to paint details :)

I really enjoyed painting them and am looking forward to painting more of them for a few more of the armies :)

Little things like the step at the rim of the hoplite's shield really help when painting the bronze rim #:-S

Thanks Techno for these sculpts
