So, I've gone down a rabbit hole that is the Three Kingdoms Chinese and started painting up the army. About 2 years ago good friend MarkBB gifted me a Magister Militum army, comprising of figures from their Han range. All figures for the foot elements have been cleaned up, glued to painting nails and primed.
First up are the 1xArt and 1xPs elements. The figures have been painted, sealed and glued to their bases. Tomorrow I should be able to flock the bases.
Cheers,

Good luck in the realm of the 3 Kingdoms Gregorious,it's a lovely army to do and an excellent period of Chinese History. If you aren't aware already and are interested in watching there are several videos available about the period(and a lot more) on YouTube.... youtube.com/@kingsandgenerals?si=mTHRMLGQc6xtnEgn...plenty to stir interest or just watch while your painting 😉

Cheers, Yesterday I completed painting the figures for the 3x4Cb, glued them to bases and flocked the stands. Next up are the heavy solid foot, 3x4Bd. Cheers,

Today I finished the 3x4Bd elements. So all of the foot for the Three Kingdoms Chinese are now completed. Ten of the 14 elements that I intend to do are now done. That just leaves the mounted elements. These elements include 1x3Cv(G), 1x3Cv and 2xLH. As CANCON is less than 5 days away, I'll return to this project once I return from my travels.
Cheers,

Between yesterday and today I was able to clean up, glue on to painting nails and prime the figures for the 3Cv(G), 3Cv and 2xLH elements. Over the weekend I aim to apply paint to the Light Horse figures, base and flock them. Let's see how successful I'll be.
Cheers,

Instead I was distracted by another project. You can see what I've been up to here: fanaticus.boards.net/thread/4162/new-desert-terrain Hopefully now, I'll be able to complete the Chinese over the next fortnight. Watch this space. Cheers,

So, over the weekend I returned to my Three Kingdoms Chinese and painted the figures for the 2xLH. They have been glued to bases and goop applied, which dried overnight. Today I'll paint the bases and apply flocking. Next up are the figures for the 3Cv element.
Cheers,
