ALY MORRISON'S "BUTTERFLY" ADVENTURES IN THE WORLD OF WARGAMES AND TOY SOLDIERS

Saturday, 14 October 2023

Late Romans… Almost done.

Greetings…

When I say almost done I of course only mean the rebasing… Freshly painted new units will definitely be added as time goes on.

First up…

Another unit of Goths/Germans…

Apart from some retouching on the clothing the only real work was done on the shields… They were not fully repainted but the designs they had were made bolder and cleaner.

Next up…

More Huns…

Not much done here… A bit of general sprucing, repainted shields, new plastic spears and standard pole.

Only a couple of command stands to come… 


All the best.  Aly

      Thank you Jonathan…
      Of course nothing is ever finished… I’m already thinking about more Roman cavalry and Huns and……. 😁

      All the best. Aly

      A game would be fun… I just need to clear all the stuff of the table…
      There will of course be a parade…

      All the best. Aly

    Looking good Aly. Rebasing can be a chore but there is a certain satisfaction when completed.

      Thank you Mark…
      I am pleased how they have turned out… And it’s been quite painless…So much so that I am thinking of restarting my Crimean War rebasing 😱… It’s all fashion at the moment.

      All the best. Aly

    Nothing better than a bit of sprucing before the cold weather sets in!

    Superb Aly,

    Really nice job on those, the command figure is an excellent looking miniature. Goths can be fun also to paint.

    I do like this period, I am fascinated by the decline of the Roman’s and how it just seemed to almost disappear in some places and continue to live on in others.

    Look forward to your next installment

    Cheers
    Matt
