Here is the finished cavalry element, riders glued on horses once the sticks were removed from their bottoms!

Back again!



I have beeen away from the blog for a while, but I have been painting ...just not photographing. Well, I am back now and here are some updates.
Firstly, a work in progress shot of the Roman Blade. The main colours have been blocked in, no shading or lining yet. There is also a vie wof the shield showing the first stage perparation for painting the shield design. The shield has been painted white, with a yellow stripe down the middle. The design will then be painted on in red leaving the white and yellow showing through where required.
