As I have said previously, a huge thank you to Curt and Sarah for the Challenge, our small group who meet for a paint and chat on Tuesdays, Millsy as our minion and chat organiser and all of you who commented on my posts and gave me so much encouragement. Also to the others participating, whose posts served as constant inspiration.
To cover that, I have put a few photos further down showing a set of action shots taken around the mid-point of the Challenge.
There are also two photos of the Sassanid Persian units done at the beginning of the Challenge.
And if you’re not bored / asleep by the time you reach them, I have also dropped some photos of my favourite units painted for the Sudan during the Challenge.
So firstly, this is all of the Sudan painted in the Challenge on the table.
A shot of all of the British Empire and Egyptian troops.
And the Mahdists.
And finally, the two 28 mm Sassanid Persian units that were done at the beginning to finish off a project that had been going for the second half of last year.
A couple of ‘action’ shots from earlier in the Challenge.
And if you’re not too bored, some reminders of my favourite units done through the Challenge.
A fine challenge indeed . I have a soft spot for the Soudan stuff of course .
