More Angry Natives

    I've given myself a bit of a painting target of uploading 2 whole units to this blog a week for the next month or so to try and get some projects (but mainly the ancient Briton and Rome projects) moving as best I can. I don't know if I can keep it up as it's going to be a minimum of 24 figures a week plus odds and sods, but it will help if I can, especially at a time when I am no longer gaming.

   This week's addition to the challenge is another unit of Ancient British Warriors - another 16 strong warband - and the second chariot from the unit of 3. This time I have mixed in a couple of slingers to build up numbers (I've bought 16 and the unit only needs 12) and I want the regular warbands to feel a bit disorganised and more of a rabble than the nice, ordered Romans they will be facing. 


   The chariot has minimal conversion work done to it, with the driver becoming the warrior on the back and a spare driver added - the old driver is in the second unit of warriors. The more I'm thinking about this project the more likely I am to add more chariots, so getting minor changes in now with extend the uses I can make of the 3 versions Warlord games sell (one of which is Boudica herself).


Next up (should) be a unit of Roman Auxiliary, so let's see how that goes.

Thanks for reading
