That is a lot of figures to paint.   :o   This is a period I am increasingly drawn to, so I shall look forward to following this thread.

Love the way you have put together the buildings and trees.  I feel the urge to steal  I mean borrow the idea.   ;)

Good luck with the move.

The aim is to paint as many as I can :?

thanks for the encouragement guys
I've managed to get all those generic pikemen on bottle tops finished now
Just the basing left




less than 4 weeks to go before moving house and we'll start packing soon so what should I do next
I think I'll tackle some Swiss pike 24 at a time and try and get them finished in time along with proper basing

Amazing.  :-*

Basing that many figures at once would drive me nuts.  o_o

Thanks guys
to be fair you can see that many of them were almost complete as I tried to show in the original Jan 9 picture
Since then I painted 30 from scratch and did highlights and flesh etc on the other 90 so its not quite as productive as it looks

I've also done a fairly basic job on them, base colours, army painter washes then tried to pick out highlights with really the emphasis on the mass rather than individual effect


Basing that many figures at once would drive me nuts.  o_o

Me too and I make such a mess I find that the only answer is to do them in one job lot
