And 2 more elements of Minifig Khazar heavy horse archers as CV - with full lamellar armor on the figures seems a waste to mount as LH.

Eight of the 16 Lb figures were painted yesterday. The remainder should be completed over the next day or so. Cheers, The second tranche of 8 Lb figures was completed today. Tomorrow I'll glue them to their bases. That leaves 1xArt and 4x4Bd to do. I don't expect to get them done before Xmas, but never say never. Cheers, The 16 figures for the 4x4Bd have been cleaned up and undercoated. But I think that is as far as I'll get as we head off on Saturday 21st for Xmas and don't return until the 27th. Not going to try and secrete painting equipment into my luggage 🙄. Cheers,

Just finished another 18 Norman/French knights and 9 Breton cavalry. On their way over the channel are another 18 knights and all the infantry needed to complete two commands with options.
As a Christmas and birthday present to myself, I placed an order for two Nikephorian armies. These should arrive late January giving the Normans time to practice against the Welsh, Scots, East Franks, Lombard, North African Arab and Fatamid.

The DBA war machine is cranking along at a nice tempo. I have cleaned and undercoated 4 LH to serve as Gascon scouts for the Norman/French and 24 spearmen to fill the ranks for Strathclyde. Painting will begin next week.

Finally got off my butt and finished painting 6 elements of Parthian horse archers. I will not terrain the bases until the next 6 are mounted so they look alike. The 4 elements of cataphracts are already done, so after the next pack of horse archers will come the archers. Then the army will finally be done.

Yep, I always flock my bases once an army is completed. As you say, consistency in the finish is guaranteed. Cheers,

Had a pair of primed handgunners that I thought were Roundway and was trying to determine which figure they were so that I could get them painted appropriately. Got to looking at them and hit the Viking Forge website and low and behold they are Burgundian!
Problem solved - blue and white tunics.
So an element of PS for the Book IV Burgundians painted and on a base.
Need to pick up a few more as I have an Asgard Burgundian Army pack that is 20xPK, 10xKN, 1xART, and some MTD-LB.
Also need to get the foot LB to complete those elements.

Four Gascon LH and twenty-four Strathclyde spear were completed yesterday and today, I have started the Strathclyde cavalry and skirmishers to complete the army. I think finding a suitable standard will take more time than painting the figures.
