Got my parcel from ironclad this morning. Instead of putting it to the side, and risking it to be forgotten, i just painted it immediately  ;D

field defences: Received the wrong one, asked for sandbag and a log barrier one, but got an ammo crate one. Not too bad, but the log one would have been better (they are 15mm to use with 10mm minis, logs are more 'scale friendly')



The bunker, with added piece of trench to put them in the trenchlines. (you can use the bunker separately)




togheter with some trenches



Not bad for a quick paintjob!

Very nice indeed

Thanks!


Just entered some acw civilians in the painting comp, so adding 15 models to the total count brings me to: 341 models painted!

Really nice job on those, Peter !  :)

Thanks all!

Have swapped out one picture, as i forgot to take one after i attached reins to the horses  #-o

The town scene will have to do without reins i'm afraid (i already put the town to the side)

Thanks! I hope i make 500 this year. Already made my goal of 10 complete forces, but more is always better!

Ordered 465 10 mm  dudes. A decent injection to make the lead hillock into a mountain again.

Despite looking at doing Hastings or macedonian vs indian, i settled for rome vs carthago. The (Newer) range just lured me in!

They are a lot of fun to paint!

I look forward to doing the elephants!

I also just managed to finish my final entry for the painting comp. Painted a vehicle especially for the competition. First time i do this. Normally i just use something i painted.This means it is wargames standard. I tried to go a bit above that with my entry now. I'll post it immediately.

Just posted another entry in the single base category! Didn't think i would have finished it!

I also painted up some objective markers. Nothing special and just a quick paintjob, but will do the trick! (old metal models from the original warzone range)



And got some zouaves going for my acw armies:




So adding the models from the competition and the objective markers: add 24 models (including the acw cavalry for the painting comp i forgot to count a week or 2 ago) to the total count: 365 models painted!
