Many thanks! :)

If you're interested in other pictures for the galleries I have a gallery of all my projects (for the past few years at least) at www.lassekongo.net/gallery - most of that is DBx/FOG based ancients and medieval in 15mm and 6mm.

Oh well!

I guess this now means my Corvus Belli Gauls will now stay in the drawer. :)

That is lovely work fredrik, I am really impressed with it.

I could never get near that even 30 years ago when I could still see. :D

Truly great looking. I saw you gave the skintones you used for the caucasian looking soldiers, what tones did you use for the Numidians? I never seem to use enough contrast in my skintones on 15mm figures but yours look perfect and I would like to copy it if I can.

Thanks guys! :D

The moldavians have been put on hold for a while, my main period is ancients so the medieval stuff has been a bit neglected for a while. I'm considering finishing up the moldavians for a tournament this fall, I'll be sure to post it here if I do!

Regarding the Numidian skintones: I use a basecoat of Vallejo Burnt Umber followed by a highlight of Vallejo Flat Brown, with a final higlight of Brown Sand.
