More Germanics

  After 80 days on Holiday in Australia in the sun I have returned to France and based up some of the figures I completed whilst being away. I had a small shopping spree at Cancon Australias largest Wargames convention around 25 thousand people over 4 days playing tabletop games plus general public. It was great to catch up with a few of the mates, look at some great looking tables and games and help my unpainted pile grow a little where I clocked the business class baggage allowance by 2kg…..! 

AHPC Aussie “bad batch” with my first purchase French guard cavalry 

I brought these Germanics with me on holidays in Oz, where they travelled the east coast for 1300klm, every  now and then I managed to get quite a few painted when there was wet weather or we were not visiting friends. I failed in my planning bring enough transfers to complete all of the painted ones. So now ordered and hopefully they will arrive some time this week. 

The figures are a mix of Warlord Germanics, Foundry Germanics and some hand painted and decal shields.

Praetorian cohort - Imperial Roman’s

 Praetorians!

These chaps have been hanging around at the rear of my painting desk since February awaiting Foundry shields and transfers from LBM. I purchased both while I was in the UK at Partizan and I completed them last week. I have a second cohort which just needs the command to be painted and they will join my Imperial Roman's also. The figures are from the foundry range.

Medieval siege ram

Medieval Seige Ram

off the desk is a medieval seige game, as I prepare for our season I have recommenced my stalled chateau project and have decided to get into the flavour by printing some buildings and walls. Some should be completed next week some time.

The ram and the casualties are from the Foundry range

General commander on the Danube

 Commander on the Danube

The first piece of my Foundry Imperial Roman command dioramas, a Gaul being questioned about the local tribes…I have a few planned for the analogue painting challenge. The miniatures are all from the foundry range. Really happy with my result.

Roman Auxiliary cohort

 Cohor III Augusta Thracia Auxiliaries 

Next off the desk is a unit of Auxiliary’s for the Dacian campaign, I think I will rebase them on 60x60,  as I am not happy with the smaller base sizes recommended for Hail Caesar, spears and shields will get knocked around too much I think. Really happy with the green colour next units will be in cream or blue I think. Another entry for the analogue painting challenge. 

Cheers
