Greg, Nice Painting. The mounted-infantry with resting camels is genius.

Looks fab but to be honest I also like the floating castle for HoTT.

Cypriot and Phonecian Ofds and Sods completed - but the lure of Napoleonics has been too strong in the new year. I’ve got an Italian Division on the painting table.

Cypriot and Phoenician Odds and Sods completed - > Are you making the 6 x 4Ax version at all, Paddy? Which figures? (I took 1/35b to the ‘low powered armies’ tournament at Bakewell, where it did pretty well).

(I took 1/35b to the ‘low powered armies’ tournament at Bakewell, where it did pretty well). Yep - I’ve got 4 x 4Ax - all using Chariot Miniatures bought in just before they closed down. However, in hindsight I realise I missed the HCh so will have to use Kyrenean ones until I can find some.

Have you tried DBN yet?/ I was playing my own variant of DBN based on DBA 1.0 decades before DBN came out. However, back then I usually played Empire. DBN is (IMHO) OK but does some things I don’t like. When I do play Napoleonics these days I tend to Age of Eagles or Napoleon’s Battles - so all my bases are incompatible with DBN now.

After completing the elements to morph my Seljuk Turks into Khwarizmians I conducted an audit of the STs and discovered that I needed to modify one of the elements for 3.0 compliance. So the 1xSp had to be downgraded to a 1x4Ax. In the process of debasing the figures they suffered some damage to the painted finish. Rather than attempt a touch up, I stripped the old finish and gave them a new paint job. I also rediscovered some baggage camels in the stash and these were also painted up at the same time and based as a baggage element. I'll post some images at a later date.
Cheers,

K Ken, when 3.0 came out I decided that, with new armies, all of my foot, except Hd obviously, would be based on 20mm deep bases. The option of a deeper base allowed for the more dynamically posed figures, not to mention scale creep, to easily fit on an element. I must point out that I haven't gone to the extreme of rebasing the shallower elements 😉. Cheers,
