Puzzling About the Battle of Delium: Part 1

It's been a funny week. Ocular Shingles (on my forehead and around my eye) has meant painting is a massive no-no as to avoid any unnecessary scarification- a position that ill finds me as I love painting! Being currently unwise to scratch my very itchy and painful forehead or eye, I was luckily able to continue to scratch the wargaming itch by getting to the club, hat gracing my head, in the event anyone decided to lick my forehead! Joke….. sort of! OK, Republican Romans vs Seleucids Part 2! For many more pictures and a full AAR/Bat. Rep. please go to my Just Add Water Painting and Wargaming blog here: justaddwater-bedford.blogspot.com/2026/09/clubbing-it-republican-romans-vs_091284173.html Cheers

Very nice! Thanks for sharing

If you are interested, you probably have Trigeminofacial Supraorbital Shingles, otherwise known as Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus. It usually spreads along the facial nerve route, finishing somewhere on your scalp. Keep washing your hands until the lesions have dried up to prevent spread. Lovely looking game there!

Thanks guys. Herkybird I've been to see the GP (doc) and an Ophthalmologist and there's apparently no nerve damage in my eye. A huge relief to say the least. I cannot paint as I cannot wear my Optivisor without risking scarification of my forehead so I'm stuck until it clears up. I'm keeping my hands and forehead clean. I don't fancy a secondary infection on top of all of this.:)

And I thought thoracic shingles was bad enough! Get well soon. A magnifying lamp might get you through the time of no optivisor.

Impressive game but I am reminded again why I don't like single figure basing on sabot bases. Long live dioramic basing !! (aka. Impetus and Sword and Spear.)

Oberlindes Sol LIC And I thought thoracic shingles was bad enough! Get well soon. And thank you. I feel your pain….. off to the docs today for further prodding. A magnifying lamp might get you through the time of no optivisor. Damn…… it didn't even cross my mind! Amazon here I come! [bMarcus Brutus I am reminded again why I don't like single figure basing on sabot bases. Long live dioramic basing !! Oh, me too. unfortunately I'm stuck with what we play at the club- not that I don't keep trying to ship away….. not to blow my own trumpet but I'm pretty good at putting quite dynamic multi bases together- take a peek here: cheers
