From DarrelH - Late Roman Cataphracts complete ! 65 pts

Late Roman Cataphracts Complete!

What a month! I'll leave it at that.

Painting time has been slim on the ground of late and varnishing conditions much less so! It's actually rained for more "40 days and 40 nights!". ) One could not make it up. I did manage to get the back rank of my Late Roman Cataphracts finished which, given that I have to spray the last few layers of varnish on, the indifferent rainy conditions, along with other stuff was quite a satisfying achievement. I'm usually much more prolific, but hey ho.....

I hope you enjoy them. They were painted with deliberate rapidity, so are not my finest- but they will certainly do for a game or twenty! I actually do not have very much time to talk/waffle  except to say that I've got another cavalry unit on the way as well as some back rank Archers for a unit (started two years ago but stopped in their tracks by the only disastrous varnishing accident I have had in my life!) It was bad, see quick pic below:


That was the one and only time I have ever strayed from my current varnishing technique! (Ed from DaveD - ooh that’s nasty )

Late Roman Cats:







Unit Finito!



Cheers. Here's to a hopefully more complete post next week!

From DaveD , great to have some work again from you . I hope your real life travails are progressing . Certainly the weather in NE has been too wet ! Let’s call this 65 pts ,
