I started preparing some Poeni spearmen but have decided they and the wash on the Romans can wait till tomorrow after my pre-dawn start today

[paulr]

Romans washed this morning

Poeni spearmen prepared

Final dry brush and figure bases done on the Romans 

Forecast "Becoming cloudy tonight. Northerly winds, strengthening this evening.", will the weather be good enough to under coat the Poeni spearmen when the Romans are dry enough to move off the painting rods

[paulr]

Stayed calm and warm enough for undercoating

Romans sorted ready for basing

Poeni spearmen under coated

[Techno]

Stayed calm and warm enough for undercoating

Was that due to the bottle of wine, or the tranquillisers...and a nice log fire, or a hot water bottle ?

We need to know.

Cheers - Phil
