Next up on the painting list, the last of the Romans and two elephants for a big Trebia battle, a mere 100 figures or so. Then I'll be finishing off the other national contingents, Gallic, Spanish and African, a rather more substantial 800 odd. Ho Hum, but at least I'm down to three figure totals.

That's very nice on all fronts.
Hope you have a lorry to move it all.

Very nice work. I hope the game goes well.
What word should I use? Impressive seems to me too plain a word... Well done
Hi
That lot must weigh a ton !!!
Very impressive seeing them on 'parade' :-)
Great googamooga! That's a lot of figures...and beautifully painted as well.

To say that's impressive is a huge understatement! Breathtaking comes to mind.

Agree with PatG. Could have saved yourself years of work by doing it in 6mm.
Most impressive, James!
Hugely impressive! Maybe you could post about how you transport them safely?

BRB,
I just put them in old veg boxes from the supermarket, stack 'em in the van and trust to luck. Never had a problem so far.
Wow!

Fantastic effort. Did you need an intravenous drip to take on fluids and food while painting that lot. Looking forward to the miniatures in action at Triples.
