I had to remove a few of my little people from the display cabinet to make space for successors. Before I put them away I took a couple of pictures to remember them while they sleep in the basement. They may not look that much, but are actually 200:

Beautiful pics! I really appreciate the mix-match crowd. This image could be a perfect cover art for a generic universal wargame. Where dot he amazons come from?

Lovely PJs! Don't put them in the basement, send them to me ::)

Which pulp do you mean? Here are some Germans:
[size=200]All had begun so well.
The weather was nice in September and the road conditions had been alright.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1040.jpg)
[size=200]Then came the rain and all roads turned into mud.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1037.jpg)
[size=200]It could be worse.
And it was.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1573.jpg)
[size=200]It was in late November when the snow began to fall.
It never stopped. [/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1575-1.jpg)
[size=200]Everything turned white and looked the same.
The command group spearheaded the convoy.
They got lost.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1588-1.jpg)
[size=200]Unteroffizier Krämer took a look around from some raised position on the highest vehicle and checked the map.
The officers thought about it for a while and made a decision.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1590.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1591.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1592.jpg)
[size=200]The leading reconnaissance vehicle was ordered to move forward as a scout.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1594.jpg)
[size=200](http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1595.jpg)
The recce mission was accompanied and secured by infantry.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1604-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1605-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1620-1.jpg)
[size=200]The officers were still thinking if it would be a good idea to get some hot coffee...[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1617-1.jpg)
[size=200]... when the scouts returned to report.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1619-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1618-1.jpg)
[size=200]The situation was even worse than expected.
A junction was just a few hundred metres ahead, but it was neither signposted nor to find on any map.
The staff began to talk and think to find a solution.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1622-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1624-1.jpg)
[size=200]They decided to send another scout mission that would divide into small groups at the junction and check each direction.
The soldiers were not keen to walk the distance on the icy road.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1606-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1607-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1610-1.jpg)
[size=200]The officers were in doubt if the decision was right and began to argue.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1626-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1625.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1621-1.jpg)
[size=200]The highest ranking ones went off to really get some coffee from the radio vehicle at last.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1616-1.jpg)
[size=200]Unteroffizier Krämer was is despair.
He did not understand the high command.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1589.jpg)
[size=200]Then came trouble.
There were two people among them who were on a special top secret mission.
One of them was called Leutnant Liliane.
Nobody knew what her real name or rank was.
Nobody dared to ask.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1598.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1599-1.jpg)
[size=200]She sent for her boss.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1600-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1601-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1602.jpg)
[size=200]Her boss was the sinister helper of a mysterious sorcerer named Dr. Thule.
Nobody had ever seen the Doctor, but his helper was fearsome enough for the most.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1596-1.jpg)
[size=200]The helper was the nameless bearer of the amazing golden Spear of Destiny.
It was told that this spear could unleash bolts of lightning.
The zealot started to agitate.
He threatened to the absent enemy and he encouraged his men.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1597-1.jpg)
[size=200]The few men rallied and assembled.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1611-1.jpg)
[size=200]He spoke some final words.
The crowd cheered him up.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1612-1.jpg)
[size=200]And off they went.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1613-1.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1614-1.jpg)
[size=200]They vanished in the snow never to be seen again.
All that was left were the vehicles.[/size]
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1583.jpg)
(http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll111/wamasaka/FigurenfotosMichi1581.jpg)

Well, that are fifteen figures and five vehicles in total that I built and painted for this entry since September.
There is still a StuG II, a Kübelwagen and a Flakvierling to paint.
I think they will neither be missed nor had helped to improve this entry.
I will enter them later if you wish.

I mean the greek-looking ones. And when you're done with the rules I'd like to take a look!
AC
Greek/gladiators are from Reaper, Hasslefree and Shadowforge.
I´ll let you all know when the rules will be finished.
And Arktos: No basement accomodation...
-
You are a genius!
-
i'm shocked.
you collected all the bare-boobies barbarians you found online, im' impressed! lol
-
Awesome. I love the Barbarian woman tribe. Can you explain the elements of the leader figure on the shield? It looks like you built it yourseld?
-
It's like a Where's Waldo with miniatures.
-
Thanks for the German pics - inspired! Are the vehicles Tamiya 1/48?

Some of them are indeed. The Sd.Kfz. 222 is from ICM, the 234 is from Bandai and the FAMO is made of resin.

She was made by I-Kore for Celtos:
BOUDICCA LED THE TRIBES AGAINST THE HATED COLONY OF COLCHESTER AND RAISED IT TO THE GROUND, SLAUGHTERING MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN ALIKE. LEGION IX MARCHED TO THEIR AID FROM THEIR WINTER QUARTERS AT NEWTON - ON -TRENT BUT WERE ALMOST DESTROYED BY THE REBEL TRIBES AFTER A BLOODY ENGAGEMENT, AND FLED FOR THEIR LIVES. THE EX SOLDIERS BARRICADED THEMSELVES IN THE UNFINISHED TEMPLE TO CLAUDIUS AND HELD OUT IN HOPE OF THE ARRIVAL OF LEGION IX......BUT TO NO AVAIL.... THEY WERE MASSACRED MAKING A FINAL STAND. THE FURY THOUGH OF THE BRITON REBELS WAS BEYOND ANYTHING THE ROMANS COULD HAVE DREAMED OF.

Under grey clouds rides the victorious one
Leading the Norfolk and the Britain tribes
To an uprising against the Roman Empire
Spurring her leadership
And her attacks!
A song for a Dark Queen whose face was stained
With dark paintings and her enemies blood
No mercy, no prisoners, sacrifice ‘em all
“I talk in the name of the Gods of war”
Blessed by the wrath the Dark Queen led
Their armies towards the battlefields
And then a new age so glorious will rise
And then we will feast the Fall of the Empire
A song for a Dark Queen whose battle was lost
Their was painted were faded with their blood
Her spirit died and was buried by time
And the hopes withered away forevermore
The fate’s stone rolls downwards and then breaks
The name Iceni is lost in the winds
For the memories are written for those who won the wars
And a restless spirit rides her chariot throughout the woods
* Lyrics by Folkearth
The Queen: Walk around:
