Get everyone Viv here. I hope you're all keeping well. Welcome back. I didn't get around to painting any Romans last night. As I said I would, I think I uploaded a video yesterday and I might have mentioned that I was going to paint some Romans in the evening, the Roman Legionnaires that I started quite some time ago that were sitting here on my painting shelf on these painting pegs. These are just nine centimeters of 30mm down with a magnet in the bottom of it so I can attach them to a metal plate on my desk so they don't fall over. But I didn't get around to it. Went to the neighbor's house yesterday. Apparently they came around in the morning and invited us to a barbecue. I didn't remember about that and then six thirty-mile wife was sitting out the door saying, you're coming. It's like, where? She said to the neighbor's house, we having a barbecue. She was like, where? Fine, fuck it. Let's go around to the neighbor's house and my neighbor Danny Bruse as well. I took over some of my mango pail ale and we drink many many many liters of that and by the time I got back in the evening it was not practical to be trying to paint toy soldiers. So anyway I didn't do any painting yesterday but I'm here. I'm at it. I thought you show where I'm up to with these guys. I don't know where all the shields have gone. They used to be on something. Are they on this? I don't know where they've gone. I don't know what you're going to get. Normally I attach all the shields to a piece of wood and blue tack and they'll be around the place somewhere. So anyway, here we go. Let's have look at those Romans. Okay, so here we go. They all would have started on that piece of wood that we saw before on the blue tack. I sprayed all of them with the army paint a silver spray, chainmail or whatever it's called and then picked out all the flesh and now I started picking out leather parts and parts that will be bronzed. So you can see on this lady here's here Centurion maybe. He's got a bunch of this scale sort of stuff on his arm. I'm not a historian right. I have a vague passing interest in what these guys look like but beyond that I'm painting them however I want. So like for example all of these little tabbed parts they might have been red. Who knows? On my dudes they're going to be bronze. I did apparently get part way through to doing some bronze on some of these. Anyway, so there we are. That's all I've been doing. Picking out the flesh and the leather parts and I still need to come back and do all their toes. You can still see their silver sort of I didn't see those in the beginning and you know just ignored them. You know as you start painting a figure you sort of start seeing more and more and more things pop out. So I don't know what colors I used. I've been finishing up the others with the the Vallejo leather brown. There we go that's what I've been doing. The ones that didn't get done about a year ago with and it looks fine so I'll keep doing the rest of them like this. I've got another three of these units. There's 24 men in this. The standard bearer has this head and this wolf-pew-pew thing. Anyway there we go. What a wonderfully terrible video. There we go. There's my Roman so far so now that they've all been done I'm just trying to move on to the next color. So I have one guy that I've picked out the bronze on and his red tabbed so I'm going to go through now and do the red on all the others then I'll come back and do the bronze on all the others. Now I don't know why there's a mix of guys here with the peelum and a mix of guys with gladiacers. I don't know if that's just how I assembled them or that's what came in the box. I don't know why. Normally you'd from what I've seen at least anyway you'd have a unit with the the peelums and then a unit with sored they don't wouldn't normally mix. I don't know. I don't really care as long as it gets painted. That's really like how I care about. So that's it. We're up to the next step. Like I just said red tabbed cloth parts of these guys. Once I've done that I'll give the armor a wash with a devil and mild or better black or whatever the known oil I think it is these days. I wonder how long it's been called known oil for probably many many many years. Anyway so I'm going to do those and then I will get quick shaded. So there we are. There's my update for today. Hopefully we'll come back tomorrow. Everything's bronzed and got red on them and ready for quick shading. Hopefully we'll see. I just want to do the red tonight and we'll see what happens tomorrow. Thank you. See ya.
