Saga Age of Hannibal/Alexander

            I am not starting anything new. Not exactly. No miniature painting. No buying of dudes. There are two large squares boxes full on 28 ancients.

            The Imperial Romans are already up on eBay.

            I have ancients in 28s. I did them long ago in NY. I painted 3 Roman Aux units and a bunch of Greeks and a bunch of Carthaginians. Never based any of them. They have been chilling in foam since I finished them. 

            The Imperial Romans I painted I sold late last year.

            Kal was telling me about it at Fall In. I have looked through one of his books. But because I found my Imperial Romans in 28 and then sold those Romans. I started thinking about selling the rest and all the unpainted dudes. Thinking about Saga, remembered having such things painted. Saga being a low minis count game, 25 total. I said self, you can field an army with little effort. You could bring it to AdeptiCon and play.

            The dam books are not cheap, 50 beans. No used ones for chips floating about. The dam dice are pricey too. 

            Some of those 28s I bought. The cavalry of course. I hate painting horses. There are enough dudes for two 8 mini units. One in Spanish type war gear. The other in Macedonian. Whoever I bought them from was most likely from England and a they were done by a painting service long ago.You can tell by the style, the skin tone, and effort. These would have been the painting services lowest grade.

            They are absolutely fine the way they are. The 3 colors are there. Rebasing is need to meet Saga rules and its worn. 

            There I sit waiting for shit to DRY on the FW table. I should be painting Sallies, but I packed them for 2 weeks in Cali. I should be painting Pirates or Anno Domini. 

            Ah....I will touching them up where there are chips. Ahhhh....some color is needed. The horses could use a speed wash. MOFO I am balls deep into repainting them. Dam socks too.

            The Roman Aux were all painted up un based chilling in the foam. The brown group is the smallest of the two. Tan and blue are double the size. While other thing where happening. I glued them to bases. While watching TV I cut out the LBM transfers.

            Little Big Men transfers are such a pain. They look far beyond anything else. Man do they suck to deal with. There is no real generic size. They are all sized to the manufacturer. I have no idea who made the minis. The shields were in a random bag in a big ass box.
