In the low mountain pass there lies a peaceful pond, its waters gently ruffled by the breezed funneled through the grey rocks, between the wide spread of the lands below and the high valleys where the spring grass grows so rich and green. Every year the shepherds move their flocks into the uplands where the sheep spend the summer growing fat on the lush pasture, to be brought back down for shearing when the winds of winter come whistling down the mountains.
But the pond is peaceful only from afar, and the shepherds move their flocks past as quickly as they can, fearful of the terror that lies watchful in the water. Or so it has been, these many years...
"No more! No more will our boys dread the trip to the summer valleys, no more will we lose our sheep twice a year to the beast of the pass! I say enough! Enough of fear, men! Take up the javelin, take up the pelte shield, and follow me, and let us make an end to the beast, make the pass safe for our flocks and our shepherds!"




A diorama I put together for the local game store's year long painting contest. This is my final entry and I'm stoked at how well it came out. All of this stuff I've painted/made in the last month. I'm very proud of myself for this one.

I had a productive 1st of the year and painted this 'ere slinger! I'm not going to be finishing a model a day all year, but this was a fun way to spend a day off.
For anyone who's curious, he's converted from a Victrix Greek slinger. It turns out I had a bunch of them in a box under my sofa.


The floppy hat isn't the sharpest sculpting I've ever done, but I think he painted up alright.

Throwback Thursday: huscarls with dane axes
This week I am showcasing some Huscarls armed with Dane Axes, these are for Saga but like my other Anglo-Saxon/Anglo-Dane models will be repurposed for Lion Rampant.
The models are plastic models by Victrix, who I think produce some of the best models I have ever seen. The shield designs are not as intricate as I would like but but my hand is not as steady as it once was.


I hope you have enjoyed viewing the models as much as I enjoyed painting them.
Anyway until next time
happy hobbying!

Just look at how calmly Calgar and his Victrix Guard walk through this hoard of daemons.

Victrix Greek Peltasts done!!!! Love how these guys turned out. First Victrix models I've painted and I'm loving them. Though the mold lines were pretty intense.









These guys are going to be elements of a diorama and THEN. They will be part of my eventual Thracian army for Dragon/Lion Rampant.

I gotta level with y'all, folks. I was like "wow, Baldric's exactly my type!" and then I was like "wow, Tannhauser's exactly my type!" and
Victrix is a fucking laser-targeted tactical nuke to the part of my brain that's activated by mean fucked-up bitches. I gotta figure out how I want to draw her, how to really push her proportions to be a little off in the best way.
Everyone send prayers to my husband for getting a lot of messages like this lately.

unfortunately they date this coin with 81bce now. but for a moment there we were living in a beautiful world of sullucullus coinage...
#from political propaganda on roman republican coins: circa 92-82 b.c. by t.j. luce#sullucullus coinage come back to mee. i will overanalyze the shit out of yuo#tbf coins as propaganda during the first civil war is one of my favorite topics right now. because there's so much going on in there#venus frutis of marians vs venus victrix of sulla. the marsyas apollo coin. the argus coin. jupiterrr. etc
