Lovely work allround!

Five skeletons in a white bone scheme, rather than my usual sun bleached bone. I've also gone for purple magic in the eyes and silver Shields as a differentiation from my usual, mainly because these will be used for dungeons and dragons.View attachment 164296

I dig these very well, love the purple eyes that give them a bit golf personality.

These look crisp. The green viser/lenses is a great detail.
I love the basing color. What did you use for that?

Keep up the good work

Grrr, !mrahil

Thanks Imrahil!

Bases are primed black, dry brushed white, abd hit with a red contrast or SpeedPaint of your choice. Then drybrush white again, more lightly this time, then hit it with an orange contrast/SpeedPaint of your choice.

The bases are wargames Atlantic textured 25mms.
 
so those 4 got done earlier this week. My bad on not posting them.

but then there is also this:

My Dark Ages Army builder sets came in. I've already painted 8/96.

I'm going to be painting all the men from the box first before I paint Shields.
Each set of eight will have a different tunic color, to aid in differentiation.

Shields will be painted and attached. Once all of the Infantry are finished, then this set will wait for the second box to be put into process afterwards.

After completion of the second box via the same method, these will be based and join the command element.

Oh, I also built both retinues from a Baron's War starter for a painting project/table game at the medieval events I attend.

This is what we're up to. I've also started the next set of eight with yellow tunics. The remainder of the first box are primed, as are the shields. I will begin building the second box tomorrow, however, I will not start painting them until this first box is complete.

After these two boxes are done and based, I will get back to to finishing the Barons War plastics for the game board/starter set. Then we'll see where we're at in regards to moving forward.

Nice work!
The colors are seperate divisions? Or just to break up to much uniformity?

Grrr, !mrahil
 
No update tonight. I'm exhausted and need to catch up on sleep.
 
So these happened tonight.
48/96 infantry painted. Shields for those 48 have been started.

Tip if you are planning on painting a late Roman army: get an inexpensive set of acrylic paint pens off of Amazon or some other retailer of your choice. It makes it extremely easy to at the very least do line work for Chiro shield designs.

I've built the entire second box of infantry. I've also built some other models that have been sitting in my beds box. Pictures of those when I have the spoons.

In the meantime, I also finished the first eight of the second box, sans Shields.

If I didn't get any painting done this last weekend, because I was out doing medievalist stuff. Provided to the kingdom level group locally.

I've been building stuff from my pile of opportunity me in the meantime. Mainly Romans, because I'm on a roll with the Foederati.

You don't have to. Everyone's welcoming to watch the progress and talk about it. Or just talk about history, fun projects that you've seen me work on or other stuff. This is my home thread and my hangout place. Though I do enjoy spending time on the forum and other threads.
