Superb stuff! Now THAT looks like an army :-)

[Steve J]

  :oThat is seriously impressive work and as Ithoriel said, it does look like an army. How long did that take you if I may be so bold as to ask?

[kev1964]

Thank's chaps, about 8 weeks Steve.

Nice one!

[Bodvoc]

They look truly amazing, and only 8 weeks? That would take me months, if not years.

[Matt J]

Awesome Kev. Love the effect of the massed phalanx

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Going for ancient skirmishes then. Good stuff.

But you haven't said how many ants you used, Kev.
Absolutely stunning !!

Looks fantastic 

What skirmish rules will you be using?

[barbarian]

This is spectacular.

These are for the appropriately named EPIC Commands and Colors Ancients!   There are 15 Pike phalanxes in there, each of 64 figures.

Absolutely fantastic and a terrific effect. What rules will you be using them with?

Kev is a professional painter (and, as we have seen, an amazingly proficient one) and these figures are for my collection. So the answer to your question is Commands and Colors Ancients: EPIC!

I've spent 2 weeks painting 48 x 6mm Sumerians 

I am just going outside and may be ... some time.

Superb.

Mollinary, there's a coincidence. I will be playing my first game of Napoleonic Commands and Colours next week.

[mollinary]

I hope you enjoy it! It is fun, and has a very different feel from the ancients game. But the EPIC version of Ancients (there is not yet an Epic version of Napoleonics although it is on the cards) is a game which I find has a replay value second to none.  We played Raphia twice on Saturday, had two very close games, and it was tremendous fun. Players involved aged from 12 to 68!  Now that has to be a good thing.

8 weeks is pretty impressive. I just wouldn't be able to maintain focus on a project like this, but then this is your job which must surely focus the mind.
