That's a really impressive phalanx! :-*

Doubly impressive that something so pretty also represents such a significant Occupational Health & Safety risk with all those sharp, pointy, bits. :D
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Here's the latest image of the remaining 288 phalangites for the Salute phalanx, I'm pushing hard on the highlighting/varnishing prior to a basing push starting (hopefully) around the end of next week.

Impressive.  Did you make the pikes removable?

hi Louis, no but I attach them late on, so that I don't have to store them all with pikes fitted.  The pikes are already painted, I just need to fit them, after ensuring a good metal to metal contact.

I'm on the final straight- just four lots of 48 attacking pike to pike up and base. Still a lot of pikes to fit and bases to grout, though... but it should be finished for Salute.

Here's the Great Phalanx, finished bar some snagging, but already Salute-viable and with days to spare!
