Cheers, gentlemen!

Had a lot going on the painting table since my last post, but some of it is just now ready to share. Finished the rest of my auxiliary, though I'm awaiting decals. At some point WL changed their shield boss design, so my new decals don't fit my old shields. Got some replacements on the way.

Here they are, all coming together...

Also, added my battlefield medicine vignette and have most of the casualty figures ready for mounting to count shock. I haven't decided how I'm going to do that yet, so just the figures for now. Happy holidays everyone....

Very tidy. Apart from the medicine vignette which is very messy!

Fantastic Stuff, would love to see that lot deployed on a table some day. the battlefield medicine vignette is very nicely realised.

For shock/casualty markers, I use the Warbases dial counters, sometimes the small ones (30mm) with various wildlife on them, ducks, chickens etc. Where I am using a casualty figure I use their larger ones (40mm). I think the dials on mine are up to 12. https://warbases.co.uk/product/casualty-marker/

Thank you all very kindly.

Shah - how thick are those Warbases dials? I half have it in mind to print some on my Ender 3, as I've begun doing with my sabot bases. On those, I've chamfered the edges a bit to reduce the playing piece kinda vibe.

they are about 6mm thick, three MDF disks. The top edge could easily be chamfered, but you would still be left with a minimum of say 5mm.

These are the smaller ones, Image

and the larger ones here..

You're welcome. The wolves are going to be fervour markers for Infamy, Infamy, and I have a bunch more with casualty figures awaiting paint. I really dislike dice or counters as the aesthetics are important to me. (And I always end up rolling the dice anyway.)
