I suppose the youngsters out there will be more into Drummer and base, particularly for their 18th and 19th century commands!

Awesomeness, bases are great. I do love a good base. Yeah we know! Though I'm more of a lead guitar man myself! Jeez... that’s poor, fella... 😱 P

Just to prove that my painting isn't imaginary I've slowly begun to post photos on the FB DBA page.

Nice looking Russians sonic.
So a mix of Minifig Z-40, 41, and 45 Early Germans - semi-naked with cloak, trousered with cloak, and trousered with javelin, spear, and axes - painted and based as 8x3WB with a pair of the javelin armed as PS.
Based them as 3WB rather than WB as the pose for the javelin and spear armed figures is extended and would cause a problem making frontal contact with other elements.
Besides, 'fast' is the new super troop...

Yesterday I painted, using Tony Aguilar's technique for the first time, the figures for the 3Ax element of the b list for the Pyrrhic forces. All being well I'll move on to the figues for the 4xPs. Cheers, Today I've finished painting the figures for the 1st 2 elements of solid Pike. Next up are the figures for the single element of Tarentine LH. Cheers, So I've cleaned up the figures for Prryhus' Tarentine LH, but I just need a warmer and drier day before I can black undercoated them. Also, when I checked my stock of VVV Macedonian star decals I discovered that I was woefully deficient. So I'm just awaiting the delivery of the decals before I base the already painted pikemen. Cheers,

A very productive weekend
I finished basing the Asiatic Early Successor (Eumenes) and having soaked off the latest Early Imperial Roman army from the estate figures I stuck them down on bases, the flocking will take place later. All that needs adding is 1x3Bd (Gladiators) and 1xLCm - everything else is done.
On the painting front I also completed the last elements for my Mamluks (2x3Bw, 1x3Wb, 1xPs, 1x7Hd) and my Patrician Roman (West) (1x4Ax, 2x4Wb) so these two armies now join the ranks of the fully purple compliant. The Khitan Liao also received an element of LH, so that now only a single element of Cv stands between them and purple compliance.
I rounded off late Sunday afternoon sticking down a number of new strips ready for the next wave of figures where the Anglo Danes, Komnenan Byzantine and Burgundian Ordonance will also be brought up to code.
Cheers

Today I also cleaned up the figures for the 3rd and 4th elements of solid Pike. Though I won't be able to undercoat them for at least 5 days as each day's maximum temperature is forecast to be less than 10°C. Cheers,
