Aragonians, Langobardi and troups from Pisa in the Sicilian Army of Frederico II
Lately I've been painting up some auxilia-troops for my medieval sicilian army of the 12th/13th Century. All from "Crusader-Miniatures".

Painting Shields and Textiles
I practice the designs first on a sheet of good drawing paper, experiment with colour schemes and get used to painting them with verve so they appear more lively on the model.

This blog is dedicated to ancient and medieval miniature wargaming. I'd like to share pictures of my painted armies and models, self made terrain-pieces and sketches of projects still residing in my head or on a piece of paper.
My main interest at the moment is creating armies and accessories, researching for historical or made-up scenarios and campaigns for the fast-play wargaming rules from "De bellis Antiquitatis" (DBA) with 25mm and 15mm figurines.
I use the blog-format rather unconventionaly. It is more like a scrapbook. And I update the older posts so keep checking. I recommend utilizing the labels to the left. So if your just interested in miniatures click the "Miniatures"-label and you will be presented with posts concerning painting, figurines etc. And don't forget to click on "older posts" at the bottom of the page for more. And many thanks for commenting!
