First Plataen

I primed all the plataean cavalry for my forthcoming 28mm 2000points Plataean WAB Army. Here is the first of the heroic light cavalry:

I'm waiting for the victrix hoplites for five months now and I'm going sad, cause I need the designs for my Heavy Cavalry shields.

Free Russia !!!

I painted these miniatures a while ago its the first quarter of my neo soviet ''army''.
The miniatures are converted WW2 russians from BTD which I get on a ebay for little money the weapons(AK74 and AT4) are from TAG, the shotgun from the Near Future Foundry range.
A lot of photos:

Soviet WIP

 

I buyed some WWII russians on ebay some weeks ago and Weapons from TAG came last week, so I am able to show your my first neo-soviet in WIP. I gave him a modern shotgun instead the Ppsh and a AT-4.

I used some new Andrea colors and found the modell just fine now. It is not painted at the highest standard but should work quite well for lovely games.

The modell is from BTD ,well detailed and fun to paint. They Soviets will be used for FoA, too.

workbench update

click for a better view. On the left these are BTD WW2 Russians I'm going to convert them in modern partisans with some stuff from The Assault Group, which has not arrived yet. In the Middle my first Early Imperial Roman Legionary Cohort and on the right a lot of caesarian command from my earlier projekt.

Did they want to bomb the Reichstag ??

Hi,
I recently finished the RAFMiniatures (A really matching name for a producer of terrorists). I liked the multi parts because you can build a lot f different poses with just one pack. I tried some different techniques to paint black, in my opinion the best and a simplest is to paint them in dark grey and simply wash them. So they look black not grey and flat. The photo is not optimal and I will upload a better later.

The miniatures bases are M8 zinc plated 2,5 cm in diameter. I recently bought a pack of a hundred.

Fanatics !!!

Hi folk,
today I want to update some vikings I've converted to fanatics:

The miniatures are from Black Tree Design, very good sculpts for little money ( with endless waiting time:-) ).

Orange Task Force squad Leader

I made a new photo of my Orange Task Force squad leader to show him in the right light.  He is armed with a HKMP5 or HKMP7 like most of my SWATS. His base shows the afghan battleground and is the standard size of bases in our FoA- Fields of Afganistan games.
I think he will do his job well and kill those ******' terrorists:-).

BTD EIR prototype

 

I recently have some Black Tree Design Early Imperial Romans, to extend and finish my existing Auxiliary Army.

I painted a Prototype of my Legionnaires, normally they will wear iron helmets.

Ghillie Sniper ready

sculpting...

Hi,
It overcame me last night ... :)
The desire for a Ghillie Sniper , I took my 1Euro modeling clay and molded with the fingers sausages, which I put together almost human-like then a Celtic head on top and a Foundry weapon in the hand, in the end some gauze bandage as camouflage: .... done!

SWAT team blue

Here one more modern miniature painted by a friend of mine. She will fit well in my 'blue' Team.

Yippee !!

I get those 6 foundry figures on ebay for only 3.50 Euro including shipping costs !!!



They will command my cohorts of the VI legion.

Cohort based

Here is my third cohord, I painted five but based only three.

Still painting

I'm still painting on my caesarion legion from Gripping Beast:

character speed painting

Because I'm in trouble painting all my miniatures in time. I only allow myself to spend only about 30min to paint one character incl. drying.

Here is the first, a celt standard bearer:

workbench update

2 cohorts waiting for finished bases and one cohort in proquess, some 15mm celts lay around too and my long time project FoA.

New Legion

Here is the first cohort of my new legion. This Time I will build the VI.The miniatures are from Gripping Beast. I like them -just really good stuff-. The centurion will be from Foundry if the order will arrive soon.
I have painted already 4 cohorts but this is the first based one. I trained my paining skills on these miniatures much so there is a big progress between the cohorts:

Auilifier

Here are some photos of the aquilifer of the 1st cohort:
