The eagle-eyed amongst you may notice that in a week's painting, I have managed to half paint a mere 7 miniatures (the ones at the front). I suppose I did also manage to do base the trees below, but it doesn't seem like a lot of progress. :-(
26 palm trees, courtesy of ebay. These are nifty products that cost £1.20 each including postage, but need basing. They stand up to 20cm high. I like the trunks and the fact they are fairly rugged; I need to buy some silfror tufts for the bases.
It has occurred to me that I now have a more than adequate selection of desert terrain, and no desert themed armies. I have started to think of ways around this...

Who makes the trees? They look like a good product to pick up.
ReplyDeleteThey crop up regularly on eBay in the UK. Seller is gopaul- but he doesn't have any listed today.
ReplyDeleteThey are a simple but clever product; synthetic leaves wired to a natural stick (that looks a bit like a palm trunk) stem.
I've ordered a few of those crusader Command pack thanks to your photos. They look really nice.
ReplyDeleteThe palm trees will really set the scene for your desert battles.
They aren't bad! Especially the centurion. And the standard bearer is a nice change from the Caesarian one.
