6mm Modern West German Micro Armour(Commission)

Before I finished my work rotation I manged to paint a few pieces for this commission, for another friend at PAW.

I think they are all H&R models and paint up very nicely.



This batch, artillery, tanks and MICVs

155mm artillery pieces, the bases need some flocking, which will be done at home.

A pride of Leopards, I think they Mk1s

Marders, a prime MICV

Infantry and aircraft next up

15mm Raphia Project

I am so close to completion of this epic task(well the painting anyway), just 4 Seleucid elephants left paint.  I have the elephants but not the crew unfortunately due to a 'packing' mishap lol.  But the good people who supplied them are fixing it for me....Thank you Stu!


 Elephants and cavalry all ready to be based and presented to their respective kings.

 The last base of cavalry, Seleucid heavy horse...


 Armoured elephants, the pride of the Seleucid army.

 The other style of Seleucid elephants straight from the Hindu Kush, with Macedonian pikemen on board.


And finally Ptolemy gets his last two pachyderms.  

I am not looking forward to basing the two entire armies however I am looking forward to getting the all out on the table!

15mm Marian Roman Commission, The Last Batch

Here is the last batch of Romans for my mate at PAW, Del.  
All figures are Essex and will be in the owners hands very soon.


Two bases of Generals, I've gone for a Republican look for the Generals, so obviously they are old men or nostalgic.

 Elephants, the Panzers of the ancient world, however they were not overly used by the Romans hence I have opted for a basic beast.


Mercenary light horse bow, what would later form the auxiliar but at this stage still dressed and fought in their native style.


A different option for light horse as these could be allied or mercenary from the famous Tarantine stable.


Finaly, just for variety a different option for light horse, although carrying javelin they do have a bow case tucked away


When Del fields the army I will try and get some group pictures....

Yet another project coming to a close, just a few more groups to complete and then Del from PAW will have a nice, fresh Marian Roman Army for his FoGA collection.

 Italian allied, mercenary or auxiliary light horse
 
 Light field artillery in the form of Scorpion bolt throwers

 Roman Velites, a hang over from the earlier Republican armies but still used after the reforms

Allied or mercenary slingers

All the figures are Essex except the artillery which if War and Empire

15mm Russia 1812

A quick WIP, I have run out of bases, of my Neapolitan Army.

These are the 2nd Btn, 6th Infantry Regiment, nice orange trim and no standard...




15mm Raphia Project-Yes More Elephants

The herd keeps growing, this time 4 more, 2 for each side.....I decided to change up the Seleucid crew up slightly and give them only bowmen and Ptolemy with spearmen.

Nearly there...so close lol
