'First Look' Republican Roman pics!

[Techno]

Don't talk to me about foxes !
One of the 'wotten wascals' has been having a go at our chickens over the last week !
Anyway...For now...I've just sent that nice Mr Leon some 'dollies' to cast up for me.....and once they're back in my hot little hands, I'll be cracking on with this project....Hopefully in a couple of weeks or so.....Really looking forward to it.

Cheers - Phil.

Any updates on the figures

[Leon]

We moulded up some of the dollies, a few others needed a bit of quick repair, so we've got to mould those this weekend, and then we'll be sending a load down to Techno.  Then we can get started on this project.

Huzzah !!
Lots of dollies arrived a couple of days ago...And I've made a start now...I'll send Leon Wip piccies as I go along.
Comments will be welcome & very useful.
I'm fairly certain I know the correct styles/'uniforms' from the ref material I've now got....But if there's anything obvious that's wrong that you can see, let me know....

Cheers - Phil.

[Techno]

See if this works !

I'm really only testing to see if I've done this right !

Hopefully above is a very early wip pic of some of the republican guard...
Feel free to comment evn though it's a very early shot...Like I say above, I'm only really having a 'play'.

Cheers - Phil

[Techno]

Stroll on......It worked !!
Thanks Leon.....Bet I'll have forgotten all that by the time I try and put up the next one !

Cheers again - Phil.

LOOKING NICE TECHNO! Wow! 

[Techno]

Thanks Lemmy.....

Can't believe I haven't crashed the forum !.....SO much trouble with the 'intraweb' recently, I seem to have used all my time trying to sort out why dozens of emails have been disappearing into the electronic ether for about a month..... Thought it was just me.....But I know differently now....

Cheers - Phil (It'll be nice to get back on with the wee chaps again...after all this 'breaking wind' about.)

They look fantastic, am I looking forward to putting my present Romans in a dark box, and starting again.

Did Leon give you an idea what he wanted you to do?

Hi Bertie and Nik.....Thanks  Guys !

Yep !......Know what I'm doing now, and really looking forward to cracking on with them....Basically Second Punic War 'era' if I'm not very much mistaken....(Said he cribbing from a picture which I'll be using for a lot of the reference material !)

I'll post photo's as often as possible, so I can get feedback....Be very useful to me.

Cheers - Phil

[Leon]

[Techno]

Thanks to you too Kev....I'm hoping I'll have something more to show in the next few days.

Cheers - Phil.

Amazing work Techno I hope these don't get finished too soon though, I've a stack of stuff to paint already!

I've found Photobucket to be a pain in the proverbial lately - using Flicker now.

Cheers,

Kev
