Title: Saxon Army completed!
Post by: Yankeepedlar01 on April 17, 2008, 06:14:41 PM

I've finished my new Foundry Saxon army, so I've posted several shots of the whole collection on my website in the 1066 Gallery, on pages 5 & 6. Here's a taster for you ~

WOOOOW :o  are those banners hand painted?
Really great paint job which give this army a generic feel :D

Banners are by Little Big Man ~ its a generic Saxon/Viking/Dark Ages sheet. £10.00 I think.

Good Lord, man! Do you ever sleep, or go to work?

I'm constantly impressed by the volume & quality of your output.

I probably painted 10 figures in the time it took for your wonderful Saxons  :(

GlutMax:  of course I sleep, but I don't work, as I retired six years ago. I have an understanding wife and a tame handyman for jobs around the house, so now I do what I want and not what some ****head asks me to do! On the whole its a pleasant way to pass the time, but I do wish I was a bit more disciplined and could paint for longer each day...

People say to me "what would you find to fill all the spare time if you retire?"

That's a no-brainer - the real question should be "will you have enough spare time to get it all painted?"  :lol:

Glad to see you're spending your time wisely :wink:

Cheers,
Ian.

Ian,
There is the time when you find yourself wondering how you ever found the time to go to work too. :wink:

Very nice Yankeepedlar01!  Very colorful too.  It's always cool to see an army once it's all finished up.
