You are on a roll !  These are unrecognizable from the dusty tat you showed me last week. You saw through the dust into the treasure!

I have an awful lot of (yet to be) treasure.  lol

I remember that the Greeks considered the Thracians to be Barbarians, & the fact that
they ate BUTTER proved it.  Both James & I eat butter  >:D >:D >:D

The minimum needed, to get them onto the table as an army, is only
11 mounted & 6 foot figures. I should be able to find that in the Lead Mountain.
Then I can add some bases of Warband (Gothic type hairies) who could be both
options for the Romans & the start of a Gothic army. ;)

I was hoping they would be the first opponent for my Patrician Romans. :)

Today a quickie. From the e-bay job lot.
A light gun & crew, which will be added to my Indian Mutiny/NW frontier 'stock'.

It's been a while since I built anything, real life got in the way again.
Starting up again.
 
This was started before the 'break' for a commission.
My mate, the one I did the Bank lift for (see earlier), wanted a Vault (to stash the cash).
This is part one of the work.
The black square on the floor is where the lift will be placed.

Part two.
My friend provided 2 small safes, the outer vault door & a couple of other bits.
Not enough for as decent heist game in my opinion.
He originally wanted it to be the same 'footprint' as the bank building.
I pointed out that often the vaults exceed the 'footprint' (more room
to game) he wanted a wall around the vault, so a surplus file box was
pressed into service. I hope he, & you guys like it.
