Lovely looking force!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christopher!
DeleteBeautiful minis sir!
ReplyDeleteThank You Michal!
DeleteTerrific stuff Phil. The general in the howdah will pack a punch, especially if he is rated brilliant. That is a possible factor of 9 with a brilliant stroke. Not much is going to stop that.
ReplyDeleteEssex seem to have a much broader range for Ghaznavids than Forged in Battle, as they do for most things I suppose. Really terrific work and I'll be plundering this and you other posts for a few more ideas.
Thanks Lawrence! Perhaps I used to many colors for this army? I had fun painting The general in the howdah :o) also the Hindu Archers (3Bw) Looking forward checking out your Ghaznavids postings.
DeleteLovely Ghaznavids Phil!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cyrus(Mike?) :o)
DeleteLovely lookig Ancients again! Great looking details - especially on the canopy of the commander.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dean! appreciate your kind words! I really has fun painting the Elephants/Leader - cheers!
DeleteBeautifully painted army. Wishing to see one day one of your solo games of basic impetus or command and colors.
ReplyDeleteThanks Javier! Soon I will post a few after CCA/Impetvs games reports I have been occupied with work or other things. All the best to you Sir! :o)
DeleteThese look glorious Phil. A beautiful mix of colours and I really like your basing.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes, James
Thank you James much appreciated! my flocking of bases are average :o) which I need to improve - cheers!
DeleteSplendid looking army, I've enjoyed all the colour and especially the general on the elephant with the Honda,excellent stuff!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thank you Iain, I enjoy painting Elephants, a bit cumbersome to put the model pieces together, as you do with chariots as well, and its fun too completing the work! cheers!
