Pax Britannia 1

The legends that surround events in Britain after the Legions left are many and varied. 


Whilst not the first figures completed for this army, they are the first to be photographed as such. They are also the only two stands of light cavalry in the army.


The figures are from the War and Empire range from Forged in Battle. 


Also shown is the first command stand including a Christian priest and suitably imposing equites as the main figure.


There will be light infantry coming soon once the flocking is done. 

Cheers for now.

Back to the Brushes 402

Turning the other cheek, with these Spartans from Foundry. 


After a long lull in painting Ancient Greeks and some inspiration from Saxon Dog Wargame Projects on Facebook starting to expand on the existing Spartans and their rebasing back in April 2019. 

Going for more variety in the skin tones for the newer figures, however planing on keeping the same shield imagery for each mora of Spartans.


There are a few gaps in the existing bases so will be painting a few additional figures to complete the bases off. 

The thoughts are to double the number of units to give 16 bases at 60 x 40mm. This will allow a reasonable number of Spartiates for a full DBA army and then moving towards Hail Caesar and ADLG. Depending on how the painting goes may add in a new mora as well. 

Cheers for now.

Fantasy Hero 25

A solitary dwarf completed in March of this year that was a part of this year's AHPC XV entries. A retro figure from the haydays of Citadel Miniatures with suitably heavy armour and sword. 



The large areas of armour made this a relatively quick figure to paint and after gathering dust for far too many years finally glad he's done. 



Cheers for now
