Brilliant. A suitable finale

What this thread really needs for a proper finale is an infiltration elephant hiding inside a tent  :-\

Paul, they look great

But don't you have pictures on armies /periods like WW1, Fenian Raids, Franco Prussian, that I have no desire to purchase figures in?  Please publish these instead.  ;)

I've been having a look through my spare figures and found that by painting up 6 more elements I can add three more potential armies to my Punic Wars project without buying any more figures :) :)

Adding 2 Cavalry, 3 Light Horse and 1 Spear to my II/5h Siciliot army allows them to cover both II/5d Thessalian & II/5g Italiot :) :)

Adding 3 Light Horse to my II/9a Syracuse in Sicily army allows them to cover II/5g Italiot :)

These figures have been prepared and undercoated :) :)

Washed the figures :)

Noticed a couple of missed touch ups, one will require a tail to be re-washed ~X(
