A blog for painting historical wargaming miniatures. Periods covered include the chariot era, classical world, medieval period (Clash of Empires), colonial Africa (specifically Sudan), Old West and World War 2 (Rules of Engagement). As all gamers know, painted soldiers perform better on the tabletop than unpainted ones. It's just a scientific fact. The dice gods respect painted armies and frown upon heretical, lazy or impatient players that don't treat their armies with love and care.

Dark Age Terrain: I always like to add a couple of terrain features with each new army I paint. My Anglo-Danes are now done, so they needed some rough ground to guard their flanks. Super quick to do, it's just a few rocks on a sanded base. I spray the terrain after it's sanded and then wash a mix of black, brown and PVA over it to hold all the sand on. The following day I drybrushed Vallejo Burnt Umber over it.
