Heraclea Update - Phalangites and Cavalry

I've still been managing to find some time after work each day to chip away at the Heraclea project. I've been working on the Phalanx (closing in on halfway) and some Cavalry this week. All figures are from Victrix and are great to work with. I find Victrix to be so far ahead of the rest when it comes to plastics. From sculpt detail, size, to ease of assembly, these guys pump out great quality figures and I'd genuinely recommend them to anyone who asks.

Still unsure of how I'll base these up and have decided to leave shields out moving forward for the rest of the project and just sort them out at the end. I'll end up using LBM decals for most of em I'd say. Happy with how the project is ticking along.

Cheers, have a great weekend.

Heraclea Update - Successor Elephant

My Uncle gave me this wonderful Elephant from Gripping Beast earlier this year and I finally found the time to assemble and paint it. We are slowly working away at a Battle of Heraclea project at the moment, and with Pyrrhus being pretty damn close to my favorite historical figure, I've gladly taken on that side of things while Gavin cracks on with the Romans.

The Elephant came with a few different tusk and trunk options and arrived in pretty good condition. A small amount of work with Milliput was needed to fix some honeycombing in the resin, but that wasn't really a problem. Overall I'm very happy with it and am in the market for another!

A few finishing touches with the paint remain, and basing... when I finally settle on a plan for that! 

Cheers all, happy gaming.
