As you well know being a 15mm gamer, it doesn't take much effort at all to finish a 15mm army! DBA is good too since you only need to paint twelve bases of figures...

I am curious about the elephant! I is not easy to keep an Blog on such an time comsuming hobby like wargaming running. So I am quite happy that you are not lost to card games an keep on painting.

I'll post if you will :). I've been struggling to get any modeling done since earlier this year. I really haven't had the heart to get much done, but these Ancients figures seem to be a pretty good tonic so far. I've since finished a base of Light Horse and hope to have the Elephant and crew finished this weekend. The shrubbery is just some cut down and dried moss I pulled off a tree at the end of our driveway. I originally intended to use it to represent thorny bushes for my North African DAK FOW Panzergrenadiers but haven't got around to painting them, so these guys got it instead. Works ok doesn't it? Think I'll probably scatter a bit around on the bases for this army. Played (and lost!) three mad games of DBA last night, suspect we got a few of the basic rules wrong but seems like a fun system, certainly very fast to play.

Once again some news in my Feed! The bad weather produced some really nice models! I really like the small plant on the second image, what did you use to model that? AAAAhhh.
