Great to see you back after 5 years. By the way, we met at the Zürihegel in 2009. You played Parthians, I played Numidians. Don't remember who won, but your army looked amazing. Cheers, Karl
Fantastic details on this beautiful army!
Świetni!
Simply stunning. Excellent work here.
Great to see you back at it!
Outstanding work. Your painting humbles me. I am still working on my first DBA armies
I particularly like the camp - what dimensions did you use ?
I think that the followers base doesn't work - it is too thick. You could cut out the followers base from the camp (with an empty base to slot in when the followers unwisely exit) or make the camp base thicker
I saw this posted on Yahoo DBA group
