Finally done !


About six months ago I started painting this unit of Cimmerian Warriors for my Hyborian collection and they have sat in the cupboard waiting patiently to get finished . However this week I felt like painting something different so I got them out and they are now completed . They came with a 'factory paint job' and I have added shading and highlights, spruced them up and painted various shield designs and given them a coat off gloss varnish to protect them . Now to get them in action on the tabletop .

  2. They look the bees knees Tony, there is something about flats that really appeals to me.

    1. I hope so , in my experience newly painted troops ALWAYS do poorly in their first few battles .

  9. These look great!
    I was so pleased to read that you have part-finished things in the cupboard that you bring out when the time/inspiration suits. Snap!
