Maul & Pike(s)

Long time no update! Painting is progressing very slow at the moment, and don’t seem to pick up the pace.

Dacians & Germanians

Hello and welcome back! Today I have painted some more troops, Coming from the Warlord SPQR line! And let me tell you, I have my gripes! These are made of resin, making the super fiddly to deal with.

Can’t stop ‘bellin

Welcome back! 2 weeks really fly by, and one never seem to get enough done in the time available. Nevertheless I got my Rebel portion of my haul done! For my rebel veterans I went with a woodland scheme, as I find painting a unit with a snow camo would have broken immersion too much,Continue reading “Can’t stop ‘bellin”
