Romans

Romans, yep, Romans….

I have finally gotten paint on the Romans that I purchased back on 2007. I bought the army for Field of Glory, after looking at DBM back in the day and well.. hating the type player that played it, FoG was a real change of pace.

Romans
We all love a Roman army right?

then I might have gone overboard….

While I started with Romans for FoG, I never got around to painting them for FoG. I did 7 stands of Romans for DBA, but I lost interest in FoG when it became clear the games would take hours to no conclusion. People seemed happy with that. I wasn’t so it all stopped, enter 2017 and this new shinny game that we were shown Art De La Guerre, and it is up to 3rd edition….

This was a change of pace, all the pieces I had fitted right in to the Triumvirate Roman list. More so the game it’s self lasted two and bit hours had a clear conclusion, what a refreshing change. I dug out all the Romans I had and got to painting.

Romans 1

Romans 2

These are part of a range I have no idea where they are from, which is a pity as they are very nice models.  I would do anything to get more.  The image quality is pretty poor, cause I used my phone, not a camera with good lighting.

Romans 3

Old Glory Romans, they are not as good as the others, but will look good on the table.

Romans 4

The Gladiators are from Eureka, Elephant is from an source I can’t remember.

Romans 5

Old Glory Commander with some random house men.

Overall the army is coming along, I still have 8 more stands Romans, and some support elements to do.

So where did I go overboard….

Romans 6

Yep that would be Warlord games 28mm Romans as well. These would also be pushing 10 years old.

What is on the work Bench.

I have a commission right now that I am working on, some Indians for a Wild West game.  I also have some Romans, and some Bloodbowl stuff to do.  so many projects so little time.

The Blog and what is next.

As you can see I have updated the look and feel of the blog, I have also go some images back.

The images were a pain, because I have to go through each post and re link with the new service, which I created myself. It acts and feels like photobucket but I don’t have to extort myself to get the images linked, I will be using that from now on.
