Been very busy getting my flats based and the paintwork re-touched ready to play a game using Featherstone's Ancient rules . Here are the 1st Imperial Infantry Regt .of Hyrkania.
A detachment of the Hyrkanian Imperial Archers . Hyrkania has a strong Greco/Roman theme when it comes to figures .
Hyrkanian Light Horse , I've had to touch up the paint on most of the above figures and added a bit of shading to the flesh colour to make it stand out more .
The Hyperborian Thurn Infantry, I've had to paint extra figures to bring this up to strength - an Officer and Standard Bearer .
The 2nd Gwalur Infantry of Hyperboria , I have re-painted these to give a uniform appearance and added the two Officer figures . I'm using the organisation from the Featherstone book which gives 20 infantry and 2 Officers, the cavalry are 15 and 2 Officers . I've got enough for a small game which I will be posting soon .
Wonderful. I am looking forward to seeing the game.
ReplyDeleteWill you be using Featherstone rules as written?
Yes to start with , may modify the melee results to make them a bit more effective .
DeleteComing along very nicely indeed. I really look forward to seeing the game.
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed getting them ready .

Thanks , playing through a couple of games using them to test out the rules .
DeleteLooks great! How are you finding the flats to work with?
ReplyDeleteMost of the work so far has been touching up the paint work on these figures and adding a bit of shading to the flesh . I've painted about 12 Officer/ Standard Bears up so far myself using a black undercoat which is perhaps to dark , might try a brown for the next batch . I paint on a darker shade of colour then highlight it with brighter coat on top . I'm enjoying painting them , it's different and a bit of a challenge .
