Absolutely stunning! I love the vibrant colors! Basing is the hardest decision in any army. I hate rebasing. Adopting any new rule set is determined almost entirely by whether my current basing will work. I have complete unstarted armies waiting for me to decide what the bases are going to be. I want my bases to match my terrain. For skirmish games, I love clear acrylic. But for army games, my terrain includes mats, teddy bear fur, RR scenic covered XPS, and canvas with acrylic/silicone covered in RR scenics, including static grass. With some of them, nothing looks good. i.e., teddy bear fur. The RR scenics stuff looks great with bases that are finished in the same scheme. Printed battle mats only look good with the clear acrylic bases. Has anyone tried clear acrylic bases for an army?

I'm a fan of ranks, so it's always going to be the goblin green and flock job.

And that means square bases too, but I also prefer how those look anyway. I'm not a fan of round bases.

Here's a project from a few months ago, where possible I keep my costs down... which naturally forces one to be creative!

These are my Alcatani Fellowship, the originals sculpted by the Perry Twins are some of my favourite miniatures from WHFB... so naturally it makes sense to be able to use future Perry Miniatures to work as a base from. There was a little bit of sculpting here and there, especially on the front rank - with arms and all sorts. The most heavily sculpted piece is the musician, but even then it wasn't too hard to do.

The banner was drawn digitally by myself and then printed.

Kits used are - Perry Miniatures War of The Roses, Victrix Hoplite Heads, Perry Miniatures European Mercenaries, Warlord Games French Infantry (bandaged head) Resin heads for the champion (Rodrigo) and a pikemen from Etsy.

I thought these WERE the fellowship at first glance! Great modelling work, mate, and that painting for the bronze is really lovely.

Excellent work Sam! You should really put these in the fantasy section! You’d get more views I think!
