The latest addition is a unit of 15mm Frankish Cavalry from Forged in Battle. After painting 15mm almost exclusively for 2024 I felt the urge for a change. Currently on the painting table are 28mm Picts and Late Romans. Progress has been good, so good in fact that I now have a backlog in the basing department. I have found this switch between scales to be quite productive as I’ve maintained interest to paint a little every day.
On another topic an episode on the Mesopotamia theatre during World War One on the Yarkshire Gamer podcast had me buying a copy of When God Made Hell by Charles Townshend. This campaign has always held an interest for me, as my Great Grandfather served and died in Mesopotamia during the First World War. It should make an interesting read, and maybe inspire a wargames project for the future.
Fine looking Frankish cavalry but the horses sure look like Old Glory 15s to me.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan. You have a keen eye, Andy Cooper sculpted for Old Glory as well, not sure how many of their ranges but would explain why they look familiar. Also why they're such a good match for each other.
DeleteNicely painted unit Meic, they look grand, very crisply done.
