Pick and mix !

Hi all,

I show you today all the stuff I have painted this last days ( I should say nights ;-)) to finish some figures I had undercoated since a long time.

firstly the Indians from Xyston Miniatures, some were painted in august, in october I have painted 24 archers to complete the battle groups to play them in Field of Glory AM.

the sculpting is just great and very easy to paint!
some Essex Miniatures and Chariot Miniatures archers to use as support behind my Minoean spearmen

a camp for my Roman, the figures, the tents, the fortifications are also from Essex Miniatures

some dailamis for my dark ages Armies, Essex Miniatures figures with Littlebigmenstudio shields

I need to paint more figures to make room on the painting desk for the next projects.

Be seeing you;-)

Steppes by Steppes!

Hi all,

a step by step to paint horses ( and men on them also).
1-you'll need a aera well ventilated and a paint mask, otherwise you'll be a victim of your hobby (your sickness in wife's language).
2-some spray cans of the different browns, yellow, sand, black,white, greys (fifty is too much).
3-a good number of prepared mounted figures
4-two good arms to shake the cans    
 few pics to illustrate it:

5-a stop in thefrenchjester's bath later
6-hairdryed to gain time

7-then after a short stay at the paint station
(I have painted them with Vallejo and citadel acrylics, paints for aero from Spectralite, Golden and schmincke plus a large use of brown inks from Liquitex).
the result in pics:

hope you'll like them;
more to follow soon.......

The lions of Nubia are coming!

Hi all,

here is the figures I have painted in september, some magnificent loosers like I love them!
it's been a long time I saw the nubian army of Simon from Lurkio ( buy his figures there!)http://www.lurkio.co.uk/
I wanted one for myself , a big thank to him for his inspirationnal work. now it's done and in the box.

a grand total of 324 footmen, 8 cows, 11 sheeps, an egyptian grain silo painted and " unready" for battle;-).
with the New kingdom Egyptian  and the Early Lybian already done, still have to paint the Sea people army  to replay the great conspiracy of the biblical times.

the figures are from Chariot Miniatures, Feudal Casting, Essex Miniatures, there's one bull and the sheeps from Corvus bellli, the grain Silo is a resin cast from Gauthey Miniatures.
they are painted with a limited range of colors to gain time.

then I have to paint another army for the Field of Glory AM tournament planned in the end of october 2015.

Ready? Go !!
