Some weeks after the voting ended, I received a letter from the Custom Service that a package had arrived (and that I would have to pick it up).
The guy from the Custom Service was rather suprised as I opened the package - he had the same expression on his face as your friends would, if you told them for the first time what your hobbies were!
My first impression was "Hey, they are really big!" The casting quality is great. There was only minimal mould lines to remove.
As the game uses a unit formation (3x2 in the case of the Legionaires), I wanted to use square bases for the models.
I used 28mm bases made of plastic card. (I also used the same material for the regimental base.)
It is quite easy to handle the plasticard, just cut it with a sharp modelling knife and break it off.
The border of the regimental base is made of modeling wood.
I calculated the regimental base a bit too large - but it is better to have 2mm of gaps, than to miss 2mm and the models don't fit!
The miniatures and the wooden border were glued with superglue to the plasticard.
The level differences between the miniatures bases and the plasticcard were flattened with Milliput.
The miniatures and the regimental base were primed black. I used Citadel spray primer, followed by a layer of Chaos Black applied with a large brush.
