IV/73 Ming

I truly think that the OG figures for the Ming and Yi are some of the best I have seen. My Koreans finally have someone historical to fight over rice with! Or more likely rice wine!!
The only real draw back this army has is that it only has two LH :(
The Rocketeers!

The General and his CvThe Bw and the Bd. I wanted to give banners to all the unit types but Ps with a flag just did not seem right.

II/5a Spartan

I am looking forward to playing this Hoplite army when I get the chance.




I traded for this army from Mike Sanderson at Fall Recruits. It is too cold to spray outside so I took pictures of it un-sprayed. I will spray it in the spring. I did not want to paint all the shields the same so I changed up the colors on the same design.

IV/54c Medieval Scandinavian, Swedish

I have been interested in this army for some years now. I was interested in having a Littoral army with both an ART and a low aggression. Something about a waterway and a BUA at the same time. Sounded cool. I bought the CB some years ago with a gift certificate from Time portal hobbies for a DBA tourney. I recently picked up the ART and the BD from ebay. The Knight figures I had from the 100YWE army I bought years ago as well.
This is the first army I made with snow on the stands. I use a paste from Deco art called snow-tex. works great and hardens in about three hours.

III/70a Georgian

This is the first army I have painted in months. I guess I have finally settled down in Kansas and have begun to paint again. I have been compensating for my lack of painting by purchasing more lead...go figure. I picked up this army at Recruits 2010.
The general has my first attempt at making a cape with putty. I think it turned out fine.
The spear are slightly different. I would have preferred to have all three stands the same figures. The recruits/mercs will have to do.
Yes, I only took two of the possible four LH. Not like me at all.

II/13 Samnites

I bought these OG figures back at NASHCON in 2004ish. I have been tinkering with them for some time now and finally got a wild hair to paint them. I varied the tunic color for my own sanity and only painted two shields per pattern to give it a little diversity.
The All and powerful General, Not! Cv General is here but when everyone else heads for the hills or trees what does he do?
I originally was going to paint the Ax into two legions with a 'command' stand for each. Those figures got used for some other army so away wen that idea.
Maybe I should call them Sam's Knights to give them inspiration for the open pool table like boards they might find themselves on?
