Thanks chaps - I've enjoyed painting these figures.

I've just updated my WWI thread over on LAF, and seen it was summer 2014 last time I painted WWI stuff...

WWI British


Added some highlights to the bases, and some water effects (that isn't quite dry yet!) and matt varnished the figures. I think these are done now. Which gives 16 stands of infantry, 4 MGs, 2 mortars and a HQ, which is a full GWSH Brigade at 1 stand = 1 company. And on the left a few Divisional level heavy mortars.

Up next some Renaissance Cavalry


Just filled in the many gaps left from spraying these guys

Played Irregular Wars again on Friday - 4 commands a side, battle was a bit big, and we chatted too much to reach a conclusion. But our group is really liking these rules.

Have some photos of the last few games but need to sort them out.



Got a bit of painting done this afternoon - the Renaissance cavalry - mainly just blocking in the horse colours and a bit of a start on some of the riders. I'm finding I'm a bit unsure of colours for this era.

Found this cracking thread over on Warlord games, full of 10mm 30YW goodness

Thanks guys. Any thoughts on painting the black armour, so it doesn't look so black!
