What's Coming Next?
I plan all the painting I am doing and going to do in some detail. It's so I can keep track of my painting, record all the colours I use, and to give myself achievable targets. Sad, eh? So, in the next few weeks I have:
For the Sudan project I will be painting a dozen Sudanese Infantry.
Painting WWII US and British Infantry
Early Medieval Breton Cavalry
Victrix's new plastic Greek Hoplites
I have 6 major modelling plans for the year. First was to paint a few more units - 99 models to be exact - for my Anglo-Danish army (done) for Clash of Empires. Second is a British-Egyptian force for Death in the Dark Continent to fight against my Beja. This consists of:
6 Gordon Highlanders
3 Highlander Command
12 Sudanese Infantry
12 Egyptian Infantry
6 Beja Skirmishers
Baggage (this will be a group of newspaper correspondents)
The Beja I will just borrow from the Beja army, though I will probably pick up some Sudanese Bazingers at a later date. The highlanders are done and the Sudanese look dead easy to do. The Egyptians are nearly identical so they'll be easy. The highlander command will be fun since I have already figured out much of the painting to be done, so the newspaper dudes will end up being a bit of a treat at the end.
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.
