6mm Iraq/Egyptians

A while ago Ric mentioned he had some Black hawks and that 6mm moderns in the middle east could be an option so I re-purposed my 6mm Soviet kit, got some new bases from Warbases for pickup at York and set about repainting what I have.

The infantry is some old Imperial Guard spares that I had lying around to test colours, I have another 8 vehicles on the table just now and I'll need to buy maybe another £20-30's worth from Scotia to fill it out but with York this month, that will need to wait until April probably.  But it's only 6mm, so it's quite quick to paint and PDF purchase of CWC means that I can start getting things lined up for what I'll need to finish up a decent sized force.

Dux Britainarium

Another part of my purchase from York was some sabots for my dark age forces, I did have everything on ranked sabots which I think was fine for the British troops and their shieldwall. But I liked the look of the more ragged Saxon lines I'd seen from others so I got some skirmish style sabots for them.

Still need to flock the sabots and I completely forgot to get a more skirmish style base for the skirmish archers, but they'll do quite happily.  And just because here's the British forces that they face.

Like everything I need to finish off the Hearthguard (used Late Romans) bases and do their shields.

KoW Elves

We were talking about doing a big game of Kings of War, I already have my Dwarves and we'd need some more 'good' aligned armies to face the massive Orc horde so I had a look at my elves and can manage a 2000 pt force as shown.

I'll need to get sabots made up for everything and I'll need to paint up about a dozen or so models and properly base the rest but with some time to get ready this should be doable in the next month or so.
