Right on, dude. Makes me want to dust off the Warhammer Ancients and drink that brand free grapefruit pop in a hot room down at the box. You got them done pretty quick and they look ready to rock and roll.
Show up with 28 and everyone is playing 15.....or $40K. I've been trying to see how to improve organiation to get through this mountain of stuff I have.
Thanks from the TRUE Speed Paint Wizard. I'm trying to see how long certain things take me so I can better project manage the shenanigans happening on my painting desk. If I know I can finishing something up quickly, I might be less inclined to leave the odd figure in half-way mode stuck in desk purgatory.
Yes, This was a period between benders. lol. I might have had one on the Saturday night after my eyes got tired. Thanks for the compliment. You gotta get your Romans out there buddy.
Brilliant video James the Spartans look great and the timing is great to see how long does it take for every activity! I have to say the phone has seen better days..😂😂
Thank you very much. I don't know how people can batch paint more than 6 figures at a time. It really seems like labour to me if I do more than that at a time. But it was well worth it to see how long it takes to get a figure done.
Thanks. It was a good first try, but I think if there had been more colors it would have taken longer. A unit of Napoleonics would probably be between 90 minutes and 2 hours just because of the details and all the colors. Who knows? I might try that some time too.
Thanks, Leon. I've gotten to that point I want to see how much time I actual use painting...and I'll figure out how much time I sit scroll through UA-cam or looking for certain movie clips.
Thanks for checking it out. I have always liked your collage start to finish videos.I'm on an Ancients kick now and have two more units to do this summer to wrap up these Spartans.
Thanks Mark. The flesh is a base coat of a color called Antique Maroon. It's an Americana paint. Then the first highlight is a Shaded Flesh color, like Dwarven Flesh from GW, but an Americana. Then, I give it a wash of a brick red. When that's dry, I do the eyes, then on the flesh I do a final highlight of a watered down light mauve. I use a 000 brush and have the magnifying glasses on.

Thank you very much. Yeah, the edges of that phone are a wee bit chipped. lol
Great video. This video I will go back too when I start looking into my pile of shame with ancient. 👍

Nice project 👌 👍 fast painted
Thank you, Lucian. I'm looking on ways to get a few more minis done so timing the process seemed a natural thing to do.
Good idea for a video, next time someone asks me "how long does it take to paint one of those?", I'll have an idea of what to say

Nice work James. An interesting exercise. 🙂
Thank you. Yes, I learned a lot and realized the amount of time I spend checking out the PC while painting is over 50%.
Brilliant job James, they look excellent mate
Thanks, Sean. I appreciate it.
Very nicely done mate
Thanks very much, Justin.
Very good job in a short time.
Thank you very much.
Great video mate. I did a similar one for painting warlord Epics
Thanks, Leon. I've gotten to that point I want to see how much time I actual use painting...and I'll figure out how much time I sit scroll through UA-cam or looking for certain movie clips.
Nice one. I have to paint some Greek command in the next few weeks.

Very nice James. Did you say "Avocado Wash"?!?! How millilenial! Lol
Lol. I did say avacado wash. It's my go to Green for things gold and world war II. I just bought some before the prices went up here by a good 25%
Υπέροχο, μπράβο! 👍👍
Thanks, Phil. (had to use Google Translate for this one.lol)
Excellent James. What was your process for the skin tones? Base color then wash then highlight? Cheers!
