The Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge

Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

From VictorK - Iberian Cavalry (115 points)

So, as I've promised, here are some Iberian cavalryman. The same painting scheme, but this time I hadn't enough time to paint their shields in the same manner as I've done for the Spanish infantry. Shields were painted in an easier way, with less colours. The models are Forged in Battle, and they are really nice - horses have some awesome decorations on them, riders are really different.

I had to paint them as fast as possible to be in time for Wednesday, because we had a game with my friend, and I had no other cavalry to support my Romans.

Here are three units of cavalry (two stands of 4 models each),cavalry command and foot command.

So, 26 x 4 + 3 x 2 = 104 + 6 = 110, simple as that, and now I have less than a hundred points to my target.

Excellent work on these units Victor. The nice ground work you did really enhanced their look. I can almost feel the stampede of the impending charge. I will add five points because there is some work on these shield, and because I want to screw up your calculation of how many points you have left to paint. Yes, I am that kind of person. Good job!
