and a few Gauls more ...

More gauls finished - the last batch I made up before moving onto work on the gallic cavalry...

A rummage through the spares box, yielded enough bodies, heads and arms to complete three more gauls

The gallic cavalry have made it to the painting table.

Roman Artillery - completed

Catapult and ballistas lined up and looking ready for action....

the catapults load is a small pebble from the garden. A quick look at the centurion's shield - first attempt at a stick on label,sealed with satin varnish.

Roman Artillery - work in progress..

I delved into my spares box and used up most of the spare Call-to-Arms romans I had left and most of my spare arms; to make some new crew for my ballistas (the ones that came with them were just noticably too small)

then some crew for a catapult, the catapult is from a Horrible Histories toyset, had a few mod's in this piccy

I then went on to add a basic winding mechanism for it.. looks alright ...

will be finishing off the catapult - will move straight on to paint the crews - some romans will be painted at last....

Another Gallic Warband completed (no 3) ....

Third gallic warband now finished this time with extra plaid and woof !

Gauls - the last batch ...

The last batch of gauls have been prepared (may be a few oddments later on) ...

Another gallic warband waits at the back of paiting table for their turn, while the gallic cavalry has been primed. I've decided to finish off the gauls first then go to work on the painting up the roman legionaries.

Roman General

First post of the new year, and nice to get something else finished for this project. This time a roman general (shown in middle of being made here)

Work in progress - gallic cavalry

finished off the horse harness bits for the gallic gavalry and based them - off they go into the painting queue.....
