The idea of punctuating the Thematic Byzantine posts with some smaller mini projects has really helped me keep focused on the main item and if the weather changes so I can get my bloomin’ varnishing done I…[Read more]

This piece was sitting in my undercoated and primed cupboard since 2019 and was just begging to be completed. I have minor wargames butterfly tendencies, nothing compared to years ago, but still find it useful to remain on focus for major projects (Thematic Byzantines for the AHPC this year) by fliting with other periods etc from time to…[Read more]

My 48 hours of offsetting publishing on social media for the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge is now up and I can, at last, present to you the next unit in my growing Thematic Byzantine army.

This unit represents a body of soldiery living on the margins of the Themes. Lightly armoured “Light” cavalry used in the main for scouting though…[Read more]

I can certainly understand your desire to get stuck into the army. They are definitely one of the most interesting looking armies out there.

I’ve got a Justinian army too which is still only half complete! LOL

I’ve been looking into using oil washes on 28mm Historical miniatures and have found a ton of stuff on Fantasy/Sci Fi stuff in terms of tutorials/vids. Either my google foo is very off or the tutorials/vids simply do not exist.

I’m aiming to use them for The Crimean War mini’s.

They really are beautifully crafted miniatures and deserved all the TLC they received.

The last two ranks are currently drying after glossing and on the advice of meistro Redzed I’m going to be leaving the gloss to go off thoroughly for a few days before matting down.

I’ve got two more complete ranks and a fourth on the way. It seems like such a long time since I posted anything I couldn’t resist and decided to post the front rank as they stand prior to them being based up properly to fit the rest of the army.

I remember there used to be a gallery section on the various WG fora and was wondering where/if it is possible to post up pics of my work. (Not for commercial purposes – I do not paint commissions anymore)

Until a November last year I had taken hiatus away from wargaming and I’m a bit behind the times in some areas lol
