Right, the painting the lead mountain I already have rather than buying more policy is starting to bear fruit, although I am now getting the ‘just 4 more figure to finish the army’ urge.
Anyway. my Ottoman Turks got the treatment on holiday, so there will be some pictures of them up soon when I have taken some OK ones.
Also on the list are:
Marian Romans in 25mm – using the Wargames Factory figures which have had a bad se of reviews but which I have felt paint up quite nicely. Nine elements done, seven more required for the minima of 16 in the Marian list (and who takes more than 16 Bd(O) in a Marian list?).
25mm HOTT armies. The Undead Egyptians are progressing nicely but the Dwarves have all stepped backwards as their basing is rubbish so that needs to be redone.
15mm FoW – a Gepanzertepanzergrenadier Kompanie for the Panzer Lehr division. I think I only need to buy another 4 Sdkfz251/1’s and I have all the figures for 2000 points, and the vast majority of them are painted as well, so the end is in sight here.
15mm Later Achaemenid Persians are still stalled while Xyston get round to producing some Massagetae, but I need to paint the rest of what I have got and sort out an army list for them.
Further down the line:
Remodel the Lizardmen and get some more Stegadons – we hates you GW, we hates you
Finish off the Necrons (maybe they will get a decent codex one day?)
Finish off the High Elves – but for which system?
Rebase the pyschodelic Dark Elves for HOTT
Kofun Japanese – at least paint what I have while waiting to be able to afford a bunch of figures from the US.
