I've taken on the Challenge laid down by the Analogue Hobbies web site which you can find on my blog list, the challenge is to paint as many figures as you can between the 20th December and the 20th of March and base them. So after looking through some of my figures and some commissions I've decide to tackle the Romans i have two armies for commissions and all of the rest of my Romans that i haven't started. then if i have any time left i will get back to to my French.
So the totals of figures are as follows
336 infantry
17 Cavalry
5 ballasters
should keep me busy for a while
below, early roman army
these are whats left of mine
I don't know about your buddies, but I'm wagering you'll take the prize! Good luck on the endeavor and looking forward to seeing the results! Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteP.S. You've motivated (i.e. shamed) me into painting up a paltry 24 infantry and 14 cavalry.
good luck you can doit

ReplyDeleteRomans....:( lol good luck mate I hope you make it! I cant wait to see them when they are done. I am painting my Romans now having my Auxiliary Cav and Inf units done as well as 1 unit of legionaries. I will be posting them this weekend... I also have an Entire Mid Republican Roman Army to paint as well. I have both Hail Caesar and Clash of Empires to model the armies after and am leaning towards the later so far. Any idea's on that?
ReplyDeleteCheers..
I'm going to be in the challenge also and I will be lucky if I finish 1 battalion of 15mm Naps (count as 1/2 figures as supposedly you can paint a 15mm figure faster than a 28mm figure?).
ReplyDeleteYou are a machine!!!
Best of luck getting through the lot.
Awe ra best

ReplyDeleteBlimey, that's a fair bit to get done, good luck in the competition, I hope I beat you!!! ;0)
ReplyDeleteOh my word! I wish you the best of luck, at my current rate of progress it would take me all year to get anyway near completion.
ReplyDeletego 2mm...
ReplyDeleteGood luck and see you in the challenge as I'm in as well. I won't do anything close to that I reckon, but I'll enjoy watching what everyone does.:-)
