Sorry, I stepped on your gauntlet.
Yes I accept, the Araby are in prep. After a lot of hand wringing (I always was the eternal procrastrinator) - I am ready.
How about a Feb start (prep of units till then?) - then 1 unit a week ?
Slight digression, I tried out the Army Builder undercoat (Red LeatherI think) on my Brettonian Peasants. Followed by a drybrush of bleached bone, Tallarn flesh on all the body bits. A scattering of green hoods/tops etc to break it up. Weapon shafts were the standard snakbite leather plus a highlight. Chainmail for the obvious bits.
Whole thing dipped, looks brilliant - well for commoner scum, who don't count toward my break points.
With 10 units (i.e. 30 stands to paint) it seems the way to go - I estimate I can do a stand in 30mins.
Comparing them to the units that I paint in my more "traditional" build it up approach, there is very little differene, if anything they look a lot better. I will upload photos when I get a chance.
