Thanks Alex  :)

Thinking about it I suppose being exposed a lot of the time (which these chaps would be) would give you a tan.

For the terrain, are you going for purely historical or with a twist of fantasy?

cheers

Definitely historical. Something like that on the pics.

That'll be sweet.  Your idea is definately a paradigm shift in ancients gaming. At least for me.

Put together all the suitable civilians I've got, Foundry and Black Tree Design. 13 figures.

BTD ones are actually Celts (if I'm not wrong) but I'd say the'll do it for Germania as well.

Alex, what are you using to fix the figures onto the painting sticks? Is it a glue, or just some kind of blue-tack? If the latter, is it strong enough to hold the miniature through painting?

never tried it, and to be honest I‘m not sure I know what is it. Is it that with the glue gun?

Yeah. A flexible tough bond which dries quickly. Not too difficult to pry loose.
