So let's continue with Step number

7. Which is the highlight of the leather armour, made with Vallejo MC 70.951 White. I used a mix of accurate painting and drybrush as my coulour dries quite fast.



8. Now highlighting the red with Vallejo 70.957 Flat Red and the gold/brass with the original Old Gold.


9. After that, we get started with the flesh - I am using as middle tone the Andrea Colour AC-52, which I like espacially for ist verry dull result.


10. The second flesh I am using is Foundrys 127C from the expert flesh set. 

11. So what is there still to do? Painting the back of the shields in Vallejo 70.872 Choclate Brown and highlighting the green - to do this I mix the green basecoat, Vallejo MC 70.980 Black Green with approx. 1/4 of Vallejo GC 72.034 Bonewhite. This creates a nice and warm lighter green.


12. Last, but not least the decals are set to place. THose are supplied by Little Big Men Studios. To give them a proper fit I cut once untill nearly the middle of the decal - by this way the better match the slightly parabole sheilds.

To keep them im place a layer of Vallejo 70.520 Matt Varnish is applied, too.

13. And to make the result complete, I paint the white on the shields - not highlighting the red. This gives the shields a more "freehand" appearance.


Voilà! Now only the basing and their pike has to be done - I think that's going to happen tomorrow.

[Field of Glory] Santa's Tournament 2019 - Game 3

By
After a short night that followed the evening before, we met at the venue in the morning around 9:00 and I was bound to meet Frank with his List of Early Successor. These were the first succeeding kingdoms after the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC, which fought over supremacy of the territories once controlled by him. Some of the armies of the succeeding kingdoms have unique army lists, such as mine which is depicting the Seleucid kingdom from 206 BC onward. Frank's list is to be found in the army-list companion "Immortal Fire" and dated 92 BC. So, to be honest, his early successors are not that "early". Frank's Early Successors were composed of: 4 Troop-Commanders, who lead:  Javelinman : Light Foot, Javelin-Light Spear, Average, Unprotected, Undrilled, 6 Bases Thracian Cavalry : Cavalry, Light-Spear/Swordsman, Superior, Armored, Undrilled, 4 Bases Greek Hoplites : Heavy Foot, Offensive Spearman, Average, Protected, Drilled, 6 Bases Pha...

Hier ein Stug III von Amourfast mit Saukopfblende aus Resin und selbstgemachtem Ziremit. Die Anbauteile sind von "Zimbo" aus dem Behind Omaha Forum. Da ich noch keine Airbrush habe ist das Hinterhalt-Tarn mit dem Pinsel aufgetragen, sieht aber wie ich finde garnicht so schlecht aus.

[Field of Glory] Santa's Tournament 2019 - Game 2, Part 2

..due to Christmas celebrations and preparations I was not able to finish the second part as fast as planned. I hope you all had a good time with your families and beloved ones so far and are now well enough rested to read on. The first part of the series can be found here . ... so, lets have a look at the other side of the table: My pikes were busy keeping the horseman to their front. After being close enough to charge, those horseman then had better insights concerning the stability of my ranks and two of them decided to charge, breaking through a unit of skirmishers. breaking through their own skirmishers, these horseman had bad times coming The result was, as expected, meagre. Both lost fragmentation and the unit on the right decided to loose a base as well during close-combat. In Field of Glory, mounted units which are fighting (more than 50%) steady foot troops have disengage during joint-action phase. But as the skirmishers which were broken trough during...
