Last weekend I finally managed to get to my painting desk without freezing my toes, fingers and other delicate bits off. On my board was an eclectic mix of:
15 - Chinese warband (one has presumably gone astray).
50 - Renaissance figures (some Transylvanians)
10 - Sci-Fi goblin types (in need of repair)
38 - Daleks (in various stages)
The warband only needs some dry-brushing and basing. The goblins shouldn't take much longer either. Hopefully that means photos will be forthcoming - weather permitting of course.
Two more projects are sitting in my living room - Romans & Egyptians.
You know how it is - you research the army list, check your own stock and make a list of shortfall items. With good intentions you go to shows and pick up the figures you need - then you loose your notes.
In this case it was a 15mm Early Imperial Roman army (DBM) that I was collecting. Realising that one of my fellow players already had an EIR army I decided to alter it to Middle Imperial Roman. In the meantime DBMM lists came out At this stage the project was shelved until I, literally, fell over it.
The bare metal only gives a vague indication of the units that I was trying to build. So it's back to the drawing board. This time I will keep a hard copy of my proposed army.
The 20mm New Kingdom Egyptians are already painted and based for Armati. My intention was to re-base for Impetus. Simples! Not so as Impetus army lists are hard to come by. I checked the lists for the 'Extra Impetus' magazines (why am I thinking RIP OFF?) without success. The only available list seems to be in the 'Basic Impetus' section. Reluctantly I will have to spend time on the Forums!
