When I said this was a long-planned project, I wasn’t kidding. Spreadsheets to work out the most efficient way of purchasing models, test painting to work out colour schemes, test forces to work out how to paint 15mm models like these (I’m mostly used to 28mm stuff).

And then there’s the supplies I’ve stockpiled

Preparing the Muster

Varnish, undercoat, glue, sand for basing, new paint brushes, new pots of paint, the quantity of which was determined by how I plan to paint things – although this is also taking into account the absolute mess the global delivery network is in at the moment, and how confident I am of being able to get resupply in the near future. (And now we have the diesel problem to worry about…)

Also, the bases I’m using are shown – over 180 of them of various sizes.

And, lo, the miniatures

That is 3.35kg of metal (what type of metal does Xyston use? Doesn’t feel like white metal). I sorted them into category bags, so I’m not constantly sifting through a pile of metal, or tons of smaller bags. I don’t have a full breakdown of troop types, but I can tell you that I have five different types of shields, and of those, there are over 300 of the Aspis type (so I really do have the 300 here…)

I’m almost done with what I currently have on my table – I think I’ll have it all done over the weekend or not long after that. After which, the effort begins…with cleaning…
