I've been working on the Velites these past few weeks. Most of the colors have their basecoat down and I'm halfway through painting the red.
I also finished up some more Epic armor conversions recently, notably Thunderers which have 18 pieces of plasticard on them.
I started off my Polybian Romans with not painting any Romans at all, but Cretan Archers. I'll be using these as skirmishers. These are closer to true 15mm than the Romans (more 18mm). I'm telling myself that the Romans were just better fed.
We had our fifteenth annual NEAT two weekends ago, with twenty-one of us throwing down on the 6mm field of honor. The armies were fairly varied, with no duplicates except for Steel Legion and Necrons. Jon took home the win with his Steel Legion, while Ben took home best painted with his Iyanden (played as Beil-tan). Finally, Darius technically won the Dice of Dave but cleverly ducked out early so we gave them to Nick.
