Roman Wargames Armies: 15mm War & Conquest figure
http://3rdcenturyromanwab.blogspot.com/2015/03/15mm-war-conquest-figure.html
Monday, 23 March 2015. 15mm War and Conquest figure. One of West Wind's new War and Conquest figures. Almost spot on 15mm foot to eye. To small for me to paint anyway. I've put them on eBay! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I live in Surrey, England but spend much of my year travelling around the world which seriously eats into my painting and blogging time! View my complete profile.

Roman Wargames Armies: Germania
http://3rdcenturyromanwab.blogspot.com/2014/06/germania.html
Thursday, 19 June 2014. I was in Orc's Nest today so picked up the new Hail Caesar Germania. Some figures I have that are fine are my Foundry Ancient Germans by Mark Copplestone (now being reborn as 18mm fantasy figures ,many of them! These are some of the first 28mm figures I painted after starting some Darkest Africa and Vikings about fifteen years ago and they really look it now. Will work fine for the Marcomannic War. The German cavalry look good! 20 June 2014 at 02:27. 1 December 2014 at 19:29.

Roman Wargames Armies: Grand Manner Roman Galley 1: The main components
http://3rdcenturyromanwab.blogspot.com/2013/07/grand-manner-roman-galley-1-main.html
Saturday, 20 July 2013. Grand Manner Roman Galley 1: The main components. Here are the main components to be attached to the deck: bow, foremast foot, castle, hatch, hatch railings, tent and stern. There are a few other pieces too. They will all need trimming, sanding, attaching and filling as the fit of the parts is not that great. Concept painting for the Battle of Actium from Cleopatra (1963). But it just isn't going to happen. It's not just the cost (the Grand Manner ship is £82) it's all th...Grand ...

Roman Wargames Armies: September 2011
http://3rdcenturyromanwab.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, 1 September 2011. I have painted a number of the Foundry gladiators which are pretty historically accurate although the figures, which are by different sculptors, vary in standard quite a bit. I am not sure who is responsible for this murmillo gladatrix, which I finished last week, but she is one of the better figures and certainly one of the better female ones. She has been on the workbench for some time but two things caused me to finish her: firstly, watching the TV series. Over the years I ...

Roman Wargames Armies: August 2013
http://3rdcenturyromanwab.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, 19 August 2013. Grand Manner Roman Galley 3: Some issues with shields. I have finished the filling and sanding on the main hull and have now undercoated it. It's such a big model it took a full can of Humbrol aerosol to cover it! I put on some paint today as a test and I think it will look quite striking as I am going for a yellow and red colour scheme. And Warfare in the Classical World. Neither of them, worryingly, give any information on rigging! This illustration, from Greece and Rome at War,.

Model Macedonian/Greek Army: Advice from 1st Corps RE: Mahouts
http://modelmacedonianarmy.blogspot.com/2010/02/advice-from-1st-corps-re-mahouts.html
Thursday, 25 February 2010. Advice from 1st Corps RE: Mahouts. I contacted 1st Corps about what they recommended to do when mounting their mahouts and have received a swift response from them. As I have done, they suggested one possible option is to cut the legs to appear as if their hidden behind the ears but another suggestion they make (and it's a rather ingenious one! On the topic of horses, Simon recommends using araldite or green stuff to stick the riders to their horses (this is what I will do).
