Down to the home stretch, twenty-eight bases covered with sand/glue mix. Tomorrow, grass and tufts. Any suggestions for a Pre-Feudal Scots banner? As I understand it from reading Nigel Tranter The banner of Pre Feudal Alba was a Black Boar - it was changed to the Lion by William (The Lion) - one of the Grandsons of David I. Cheers David, Thank you for the information. I had anticipated a few Celtic animal designs, the boar being one of them.

Much of my weekend was taken up with a Figure Skating competition that the younger of the (not so) little warbands was competing in.
I did manage to steal a few hours at the painting desk, some of it involved basing the figures painted last week but I also managed to finish
1x4Bd and 1x4Pk for the Later Hungarians - making the army legal (I can field a legal 12 element army) 1xLH for the Morean Byzantine 1x4Bw for the Guti Great Revolt
Cheers

After prepping and undercoating the Delhi Sultinate army I remembered I'd already started the Murong Hsien pi Cavalry...so I took a peak in their box....three hours latter four elements of 6Cav have received a few colours.😁
I really need to stop letting myself get distracted...I blame the up and coming Pachyderm competition this weekend this time as the the culprit....The prospect of choosing a suitable army(even though I'm not attending)got me all enthusiastic about my Elly armies.😂

I got really distracted after three giant DBA medieval armies painted (and played with) in first half of 2022, I am back to colonials ... no, not Greek colonists in the Mediterranean or Black sea basins, but 19th and early 20th century 20mm colonials (or to be precise the Somaliland constabulary of 1913, some Azeri warriors for 1917-1921, some Turcomen for 1900-1020s, and various guns and gunners from 1850 to 1900!! My DBA / ancients and medieval 'mojo' a bit spent at current.... CarlL

More work done on the Hsien-pi 4x 6Cav this morning.I thought painting 24 cavalry figures at a time would be tiring for me but I'm finding it inspirational.

A number of distractions kept me from the paining desk over the weekend but I snuck in 1 session that allowed me to complete
2x3Ax and 1xPs for the Morean Byzantines.
I was so close to finishing an element of Hd for the Anatolian Turkomans but had to bail before the last few splashes of paint - so it goes.
Cheers

Finally finished my I/15 Later Amorites even after dropping the last horde on the floor when sticking the figures to the base - lots of pva everywhere and chipped paint to be fixed. Anyway all done now I’ve gone for a mixed rather than all fast army. LchG 5x3Bd 2x4Ax 2x7Hd 2x2Ps
