It’s been a while since the last update. How’s everyone doing? Bank holiday looming for us Britishers so hopefully the paintbrushes will be out in force.

I’ve been working on some Sassanid Persians for Swordpoint as part of the Spring Clean Challenge. Lots of progress on the project blog here: https://www.beastsofwar.com/project/1505517/

Finally got round to doing a matt spray and adding the basing tufts so the following are done:

16 Grivpanvar cataphract cavalry

16 Iranian horse archers

4 bases of sparabara shields for the shieldwall rule in Swordpoint.

Troop elephant with 4 crew

Shahanshah on elephant with mahout and shield bearer.

Although famously the elephants “still only count as one” I’m counting each crewman separately so that is a total of 9 for the two elephants and seven crew plus 32 cavalry and 4 shield bases is 45 completed miniatures. Add in a random Celtic cavalryman I did too and that is 46 finished. 190/365 for the year.

I’m also on Instagram if anyone else is there too you can see regular updates: https://www.instagram.com/zoidpinhead/
