Price though has doubled since I bought these, so while I would like to get more you're looking at Xyston-grade prices and high shipping costs too :(Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-87514291600835680662015-08-18T23:16:02.678+09:002015-08-18T23:16:02.678+09:00The knock on Essex is that there is not enough det...The knock on Essex is that there is not enough detail. That for me is the selling point. They are dead easy to paint and look great.

You're still pretty busy with your 1985 project though by the looks of things, so probably hard to fit them into the painting queue!Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-70369469011438292152015-08-16T15:28:52.437+09:002015-08-16T15:28:52.437+09:00Please do, Dean - I can get some painting and gami...Please do, Dean - I can get some painting and gaming inspiration from you :)Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-64730398829516091722015-08-16T15:28:15.628+09:002015-08-16T15:28:15.628+09:00Thanks El Grego.

Yes, 6cm bases, but they are a bit deeper than they would be for DBA (I went for 30mm depth, but strictly speaking the spear and blade should be 20mm!).Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-78037522663819595402015-08-16T15:27:05.173+09:002015-08-16T15:27:05.173+09:00Cheers, Phil!Cheers, Phil!Prufrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659918463589870423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-17052390112140230942015-08-16T03:50:33.725+09:002015-08-16T03:50:33.725+09:00They look great, lovely job!They look great, lovely job!Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08913029478686087197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-54303063046567073732015-08-16T03:38:40.771+09:002015-08-16T03:38:40.771+09:00They look great Aaron.

If so, that makes DBA elements look much better, which has been my biggest hurdle to overcome with that ruleset.El Gregohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15255734917358886698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-60569174762766766162015-08-16T01:28:13.504+09:002015-08-16T01:28:13.504+09:00lovely work! once you flock the bases your Saxons ...lovely work! once you flock the bases your Saxons will look awesome!<br /><br />cheers,Phil Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02369365598439913360noreply@blogger.com
