Anyway, long story short looking through the Hellenistic collection it became apparent that some of my older units were in serious need of some detail work on their bases. A fair proportion of them were completed in the pre-tuft days of the last century and don't match up well to the more recent additions.
The before & after pictures below illustrate the discrepancy:
Foundry Miniatures Greek Mercenary & Eastern Phalangites, old basing style. |
Different Foundry Eastern Phalangites, Mk. II basing. |
The new basing looks much better.
ReplyDeleteNice job on the Macedonians, the pink makes them stand out .
Time spent on basing is rarely wasted! They look very good.
ReplyDeleteThank you chaps, I thought this might be a chore but in fact its very cathartic. Bit costly in tufts though.
ReplyDeleteFoundry Macedonians area always worth it! The tufts look great. My guys have also been used a lot - but still holding up okay with a few chips here and there. Best, Dean
