What's on your workbench?

[levied troop]

Far too much on the workbench, lockdown seems to have meant that I start going through all the projects I have and dabbling in bits and pieces for each. In particular I seem to have a hang-up on horses at the moment, there’s about 6 different periods of horses across the paint table (and adjacent surfaces!) with none of them getting completed. I am in need of discipline.

Gaynor is available to administer discipline I am told.....

... all you need to do is show her your ankles.

And pay feelers pimp fee of course....

Late as always, but for those of you oohing and aahing over those lovely FiB Vikings, here are my Sassanids by FiB. Not painted by me luckily, but by those nice folks at Fernando.

Hi Dog how's you ?

Nice army - love the levy!

Wow! Lovely work!

Hi Dog how's you ?

Nice army - love the levy!

Thanks. Doing OK, surviving lockdown, unlike my job. Cabin fever, unemployment and Mrs Dog’s need for my wargaming space to exercise in have killed any mojo. Not that I appear to have any of that extra time people keep complaining about...

Nice. I looked at these, but the thought of replacing every globe hat cooled my ardour.

Yes, I was disappointed about the globe hats, but decided to bite the bullet and go ‘old school’. My love of Sassanians (as we should call them now) dates from Charles Grant’s ‘Wargames Tactics’ when globe hats were definitely all the rage anyway.
