Post by: olicana on December 20, 2020, 02:55:03 PM: Nicely done. The painting is very good, the base-work is excellent. My only issue would be the number of figs on a stand - I like my figures more 'packed' - but that is a minor issue.

Example:

(https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-XycIBSD-ygw/X4VzPWoIUnI/AAAAAAAAOwA/pU-XbQYotDcdbBa-D5KibzkoJUcL-kxCACNcBGAsYHQ/s2048/IMG_0713.JPG)

Title: Re: [28mm] Early Crusader's Army for Impetus Game
Post by: nikkobourges on December 20, 2020, 03:18:44 PM: Hello Olicana,

And thanks. I'm agree with you and I like yours packed stands : it's a pleasure to contemplate !!!

But I have different reasons :
_ I play Impetus Games and frontage of all units is 12 cm,
_ I am a slow painter,
_ I have defined with my games friends the number of miniatures on each stand.
