Hello everyone, a few years ago I collected together a very large number of Persian figures by several makers with the intention of painting and assembling an...
Hi, Annie. If you want to remain flexible for various rulesets, you can mount the figures individually by a method that allow you to add them to sabot bases ...
I second Bill on the basing methods. As for the color issue, you can always say your army is uniquely rare. Worst case scenario is to just wash them with a...
Annie, Sorry to hear about the short shrift you received at your local club. How unfortunate that they should prefer their dwarfish 15mm figures to your...

Hi Tom When using WAB do you base everything on 20mmX 20mm? When I first put together my Carthaginian army I wasn't sure what to regard as heavy infantry and...
