Beginnings



The images from what is known as the Medieval House book are so evocative to me . They feature in books showing troops of the period for example the Ian Heath book on armies of the middle ages volume 2. With their extreme pointed shoes, Gothic armour and other fascinating examples of Gothic style they look amazing...

I have had quite a collection of Wargames Foundry figures unpainted under the stairs. They have been dug out of their drawers and I have started to paint. I am certainly not the world's best or fastest painter but I have begun. I hope to post photographs of the first figures quite soon...

Remember that detail not seen at a meter's distance don't really need to be painted separately -- just paint over them. You're painting an army -- not role-playing figures.
