Very nice. I do love the way you do your dinked shields. Looks like the side of my wife’s car  ;)

Is that just cunning paintwork, or do you actually bash them about before painting?  :)
haha your wife doesnt mind driving around with a bashed up colourful shield on the side of her car?
 and its really quite simple. I take one of my old brushes that has the hairs sticking everywhere and has all gone hard. I put some paint on the edges of the brush and softly dab it on the shield here and there. After that i add maybe some scratches, fill in the dabs that were too big and give em a little highlight at the bottom and there you go.

Hey there.

I have been sick for a while now but I finally managed some painting again! I finished the Raimund of Toulouse miniature and I knew I just had to use him for a picture. I dubbed it "Dex Aie" after the Norman battlecry (I looked it up, but I'm sure someone will tell me I'm wrong soon enough) . I hope you like it.

Hey there,

I've been working on patching up some miniatures that didn't really have a purpose along side others that have been standing half finished in my closet for a while now. I'm slowly adding more to this project in a very effective way and personally I really enjoy this. I feel I have reached a point where I have painted enough for at least the red army (except for the unfinished ranged and cavalry miniatures that I can just add what I like to it and that gives this project a certain calm. There is tons I still want to ad to it though so I won't be done anytime soon.

I also took a better picture of the guy I used in Dex Aie.







The two guys on the left I had painted once before. I changed their shields to the red and white I use on the others too so they match. The guy on the right was a miniature that was standing half finished in my closet for quite a while. More of these coming soon (I hope)

What a nice brush you have!

I really like the attention you have done to the faces. The greying beard and the dude with the red nose... how cool!

The Dex Aie guy is a really imposing figure!
And the other three, I like this red and their faces are so well done!
Keep them coming!
