VW beetle

 

 VW beetle 

I am always on the lookout for civilian bits that will fit my Cold War scenes, I was excited to come across a hot wheels collection of VW cars which in due course will hit the painting desk. This one my my wife’s mothers car in the 80s. Very snazzy at the time in two tone orange and white.

 Republican Roman Army 

I have been photographing figures for Sale the last two days, clearing the decks to concentrate on the battles closer to home and reducing the unused armies . Also the is second Republican Army I have, this one was built as opponents to my sold Carthaginian Army. The figures are from First Corps range. The army is based for Impetus but could suit To the Strongest or Midgard rules. Each legion has different shields and consists of a Velites, Hastati, Princeps, Triarii and Cavalry.   I also have another Italian legion which I will sell separately after I take photos.
