A Legion Rises
April - Pretorians
March and April were busy months for me and the Praetorians drifted well over their intended deadline. Although they were more straight forward to paint than the legionaries, the larger model count slowed me down and I wasn’t always able to complete a step on every model, within the same painting session.
I had chosen the Deep Purple as the Pretorian spot colour and despite having ‘Smoke on the Water’ on repeat in my head, I was really pleased with the result.
On the final day of April I applied the verdigris, finishing the unit a full month behind schedule!
Fortunately the Xiliarch was next on the list. As a single model he offered a much needed reprieve from the bulk painting required on the regiments and would hopefully allow me to get back on track.
