Between the historical games played I am painting the latest addition to the Post Punic War collection, the Bactrian Greek. There are two commands, one a standard mix of cavalry, pike and elephant and a second composed entirely of cavalry.

I have posted to the blog a brief text with photos of the initial stage.

Easy to expand to an Indo-Bactrian.
One of my favorite armies in DBM and WRG.

When I get painting again one of my on hold projects was the phalangites to morph my Classical Indians into a Graeco-Indian.

Graeco-Bactrian up next.

An Indo-Bactrian army does have its charm, but they are a very, very, very low priority at the moment.

The Greco-Bactrian will serve as opponents for the armies of Seleucid and Parthia which are ready for battle.

Good stuff -I also stick figs on bases and then paint them.
I don't understand all this sticking them on lollipop sticks etc.

Sorry - only verified members can post on the forums.
