So, just started a very large progect.
I'm doing a very large army of Romans. Got a very good deal on some older Peri minatures Romans. Missing bases (that pedraken has provided) and shields (Ordered from Warlord) in order to sort them out.
I also requested Leon at Pendraken to custom make some movement trays for me, very nice they are also!
I have well over 300 men. So to face me, 3 mates are comming together, cash and time, to do celts. That's 600+ Celts, around a dozen chariots and then 40 odd cavelry!
We are also going to make a board for it and scenarios dating from the second invashion of Briton (Early Imperial) through Bodicca and most likly up to the withdrawal from Briton.

1/3 of my total army unpainted.
That is going to look a stunning game. What is the wash / dip that you used, it seems effective but has been quite gentle on the colours.
Hi Norm.
For the Legionnaire:
• I spray paint a undercoat of ArmyPainter Black or Gray
• I spray paint a Base coat of ArmyPainter Metal
• I then do detail, Flesh, Red, Brown, one coat, no highlighting (that's it!)
• Then a coat of wash (Liquid Talent!) I use a mix of black (about 1/9 Black and water)*
For the Sheilds
• I spray paint a undercoat of ArmyPainter Black or Gray
• I spray paint a Base coat of ArmyPainter Red
• Paint Yellow detail (I have the embossed shields)
• Spray with Gloss Varnish.
This thread will be kept up to date with all aspects of this project. All three tribes of celts, Romans, the board, the scenarios, the games!
Looking good V !
Most impressive.
Cheers - Phil
Very nice indeed.

Goddamit! Your making me want to start on getting a warhammer ancients game started that I've been wanting to do for ages...Just time and work won't allow!! :'(
Seriously though, great stuff V!
Well I was thinking of doing 10mm Romans, but after my Divorce (From a wife who would not allow me to spend my own money on minatures) I thought I would do 28mil and have a bit of detail (sorry Leon).
I also have a lot of 10mm to sort out, DrWho, Zulu, Alien Etc so a bit if 28 won't harm me.
He come the Druids!!!
My mate had to do this model first

What'd the Romans ever do for us, eh?
Well, give us back ache from carrying so much lead for starters!
Lovely - that's going to give some very big games :)
It's a massive amount of Romans... You should see the Celts! My hart sunk when I watched them unpack there massive box!
Those are going to look SO zippy on the table top.

Just finished a regiment of Pretorians.
Very similar to paint than standard Romans but with there crest painted white, then inked with a watered down yellow wash.

Auxiliary from the side
Do you all think the command should be on the front line?
The Centurion should be on the front leading the regiment. But the Horn blower and Stndard?
I've put them on the front as that's the done thing in Warhammer Fantasy. But they are smaller units.
Also, I imagine the Romans making a wall with the shields and they don't have shields?
So what do you all think? Move the standard and horn blower to the center or back? Or keep 'em on the front?
A standard is to be followed. And a musician communicates the officer's wishes. You know my methods, Watson. Apply them.
Centurions might be in the front rank if things were desperate and standard bearers and musicians might lead in an advance but by point of contact the front rank should be legionaries or auxilia with spear/ sword/ shield, so I'd say it depends what phase of the battle the unit is representing ... or to put it another way, do what you think looks best there's an explanation for either option!
Bizarre... first post was actually in response to the Night goblin thread but somehow ended up here. Suspect touch pad-thumb integration issues...
If your guys are on single bases in movement trays pop them to front when marching, back a rank when it gets down to the shoving and bleeding :)
"Competition" Warhammer players might balk (the standards not in the front rank, no bonus!) but stuff 'em.
Right, first part of the terrain building...
The board is recycled from the African board
http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=5712.0;wap2
It has a textured coat already, using a mix of paint with sand mixed in. I've added some more hills by mixing up polly filler. Top tip for the hills. Make a pile with your filler about the size you want the hill, then use a wet 3inc paint brush to smoth it out.
Then once dry a coat of paint ontop. I have now given it a coat of green paint as tomorow will do another coat and spinkle grass flock onto it before it drys.
For the path I've used decorators calk to outline it before painting it brown. I have made sure each one starts and ends at the same point on the board so each can be swapped changing the layout .
Because of the bases the trees from my winter board fit perfect and just look slightly frosty.

I think front rank is best. It may be correct in any case but more to the point, the opponent can tell what units have what.
Another regiment of Legionaries done! These will be Vetrans, a lot these have older variants of armour and a few have gladiator style gauntlet armour to help protect the sword arm, a lot of Romans lost the sword arm fighting, this was a add hock solution that Legionairs would chose to use.

Long roman road, in the distance you can just work out some Romans on the horizon.

Road has a thin layer of gravel on, this was a later idea, looks good.

Trees also fit well, although made for a snow board. It looks just like a slight frost in the trees and dosnt look out of place.

Marching to war.
That's some serious weight of metal there, and I love the slave girls - what self respecting Emperor would take the field without them?
The army is a boat load of metal! Probably worth more in scrap than I paid for them!!
However, they are looking good! Only got 3 regiments of Legionairs, one very small squad of Auxiliaries and the 4 scorpions with crew and 20 Auxiliarie Cavelry.
The slave girls and retinue bring a lot of character to the unit. Instead of just the Genral on his own, his entourage make him look more important. I think it will look fab with the Genral at the back of the field with his advisors and slaves attending him.
Very nice work indeed, V.
Cheers - Phil.
Good ideas V
Liking these lots - have they seen action yet?
Funny how no-one can resist a chance to stick on a bit of crumpet (including your humble Aztec-fancier). First time I've seen one in the imperial Roman ranks, mind you.

Not yet! Next Wednesday the map campaign starts!
Watching the other three players doing celts... Very worried, the amount of them.
Your right FK, any excuse!
Here's a pic of some Archers I've just finished.

I think a little more light will show them off a lot better, V. :)

I quite like the photo style on the cavalry there - they look like they're charging out of a dawn mist :)
Great stuff, this army is looking like a serious weight of metal to have land on your turf :D
Very smart looking cavalry commander and I love the shading on the archers' tunics.
I also have a strong opinion that the photos are not doing anything like justice to this magnificent army.
Ditto.
Where's the light coming from in the shots, V ?
Cheers - Phil
Nice looking 'bigguns'. Keep us posted on the campaign.
51 Legioners and 10 Auxiliarys and then I'm finished!!!

Is it foggy with you today?
I'm sure these look grand in person - but the photos really haven't come out well at all - they look very grainy, which is usually due to lack of light, but some of the photos seem quite bright, so I'm not sure what's up.
Is the lens on the camera slightly dirty 'V' ?....Are you 'blowing up' the shots a lot ?
Cheers - Phil.
It's just a really old scratched beat up phone cam. :(
Better?

Splendid toys room :D I heartily approve!
Like the Necromunda set up, too :)
It's all become clear now.
