I have decided for next years major side project, I want to do a Dacian & Marcomannic wars, so I have started a new thread to track my progress. This will possibly stretch out for two years before completion.
First I will be painting a Foundry middle Imperial Roman army, followed by Dacians then Sarmations and Quadi.
I have had my Roman army for about three years awaiting paint so after seeing some great projects here it has pushed me into painting mine. So to begin with I undercoated 300 figures this week and I am trying to resist starting them before next year.......we shall see!
I plan to build two legions for Impetus/Hail Caesar, plus a similar amount of Auxillia, command and siege weapons etc I will take a photo tomorrow of the army laid out.
As a bonus in my project drawers I had a part completed Sarmation Cataphractarii from Warlord games, undercoated and base coated. The warlord figures are a bit of a pain being two parts, but that makes them poseable, which is a plus. So I pinned them into position, a bit of carving and some green stuff, then slapped on some paint. I am very happy with the result I think they look great.
first cab off the rank
cheers
