From AlanD: Thracians and Teensie Huns (130 points)

I can't match Paul O'G's Skulltacular skull overload, but at least I can offer a severed head.

It has been a pleasure this week starting on a little project painting Thracians for Mortal Gods, a game I have very much enjoyed playing with the said Paul. The real appeal of Thracians is partly the opportunity to paint these beautiful figures from Wargames Foundry, but mostly because they will annoy the hell out of Paul as they run around throwing javelins at his hoplites. It will be like playing Welsh against him in SAGA all over again.

In all seriousness though, these Foundry figures are just lovely, and worth the nightmare that is painting Thracian cloaks.

This week also saw the end of my 6mm Late Roman project, with a bunch of Huns and subject infantry skirmishers from Baccus. 

As far as points go, that should give me 45 points for the Thracians, then 48 cavalry and 48 infantry in 6mm (72 points), for a total of 117. Thanks!

Lovely work, Dux. I have been a long admirer of the Foundry Thracian range and using Mortal Gods as the vehicle in which to stick one's toe is genius. As usual I'm impressed with your freehand brushwork with the patterns and shield devices - really lovely stuff. This extends to your 6mm Huns where the time you've spent on the details really do pay off in the end product.

I'm going to give a few extra points for the patterning on the Thracians to pop this up to 130 points. Again, wonderful stuff Alan!
