I received the models with the supports have already been removed so it would just be 99% alcohol and then soap and water?

If the supports are already removed, I would assume they were already washed in alcohol and cured? If yes, only soap and water is needed. If not, than first alcohol wash, than curing and soap and water.

I really don't know. I'll have to contact the chao who sent me the models and ask.

That's the plan Tohhel. Thanks for the input- appreciated

The bishop is absolutely mega and your print is the business.

Has he got anything marking him out as a bishop apart from the crucifix? I fancy he might work as a generic lord.

I don't think so, the only thing I can think off that he maybe is more suited for mid to late 12th century instead of late 11th century because of the surcoat, but I am still going to use him for my 11th century retinue.

Hello,

My first unit for the Barons' War ruleset is finished (kinda

).
Currently their Dark Ages supplement isn't released yet, when it's released I will base it on the Norman armylist.

This is a guard unit. So imo well equiped spearmen with a command group.

For the command group I used the veteran sergeant stats and his equipment is mail, sword and large shield + pennant and priest upgrade. (The priest isn't finished yet, currently I am painting a Footsore late Saxon priest who will be added until Caballero miniatures releases a suitable miniature.

)

For the guard unit I use the foot sergeants rules and they are equiped with mail, spear and large shield.

For the unit the veteran sergeant represents a dismounted Caballero Villanos.

The shields are Victrix shield from their Saxon set.

Hello,

I finally finished a second unit of spearmen and a lonely knight. These are unarmoured and equiped with spear and round shield (medium shield). The knight is equiped with mail, kite shiel (large shield), spear and sword.

I am still planning to use them with the Barons' War ruleset.

Lovely work Tonhel

Thank you Atheling!

Update:

I was lucky to do a test print for a priest that will be part of the november release. I printed him two times. In his right hand he holds the corss of Pelagius.
I painted both with simultaneously with the same colours. The difference is that for the left one I used a stippling method (first time) and the right one I painted as I always paint. It was fun to do. I really like this mini!

The first picture is a bit unsharp, but the second is sharp.

I also finished another knight, I am not happy with the shield. It needs some extra layers, so it looks a bit smoother. So that needs some retouching eventually.

More beautiful work Tonhel

BTW, James Morris and co are putting on a Reconquista 11th CE game at Partizan today so something to watch out for as I have no doubt it will be a sight to behold.

I couldn't make it so I'm very eager to see the pictures of the game.

It will be a good one and from what I've heard/seen it seems to work with Mythological games as well as Historical.
