Forces gathering, the Empire going to battle.
I've started full of energy and with detailed plan. I painted many miniatures that were in boxes for a long time. Empire was my one of the dream armies in '90ties. No luck nor money to build it until now. One of the most important goals was return enjoment from painting miniatures. Unfortunately starting April I had less and less motivation to finish this project...
But painted miniatures looks like old-style colourful forces. Exactly as it shall
I've spent a lot of time in place that internet access is discusable ;) and far away from my workshop (that's why i wrote it three days after regular deadline).

1500 points of lovely Empire troops that weren't painted but are painted now seems like a victory to me! Well done. Hopefully those other minis will join them, one day :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a fantastic looking force. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of them but that's an army to be proud of
ReplyDeleteClassic Empire! Your force looks awesome, especially those army shots, and hand painted banner for the finishing touch. Congratulations!!
