Very nicely done!

Having followed your example in getting palm trees for my planned Sumerian armies ( which remain merely planned as I struggle to put the kitchen/ dining area back together after the new kitchen install) I just got a pack of Baccus "Baa Sheep" to act as markers for sheep stealing scenarios.

Care to divulge what you're painting next so I know in advance what I'll be doing next?   :o ;)  ;D

Just goes to show how the same region throws up the same stuff from prehistory to modern times. Next, I'll be completing mud brick buildings and local tribesmen. Safe bet they're on your list too? But swap the 6mm for 10mm and you can use my terrain and sheep!

Just been sorting out my Hovels and Leven miniatures. Not entirely accurate but close enough for me - especially in 6mm.

I am humbled to follow in your footsteps!

When I wanted a huge flock of 6mm sheep ("dirty sheep", as a Chinese friend always called them), I made them from pipe-cleaners. The eye believed.

THERE'S an army for the fantasy people. They could fight an army of lions led by donkeys.

Looks like it was a very good game  :)

I find it interesting how often wargamers repoduce history,  including what read in the history books as obvious mistakes

The situation often dictates more than the 'inspired' general would care to admit!
