Death of Ptolemy VI


The unit of Hellenistic Mercenaries from the previous post was inspired by a illustration by Seán Ó’ Brógáin featured in Ancient Warfare Magazine X. 2. Since I was snapping the mercenaries I thought I would grab some elephants and cavalry to emulate the illustration further. I was quite pleased with the Geek Villian rocky grass fleece cloth and it worked well with the sky sections. 

A reminder that PARADE GROUND 20mm is also on

  1. Nice work, Tony! If I used FB I would join into the Newline Painters' Group.

    1. Thanks Jonathan, it's a great little group and I think if it wasn't for that I wouldn't really bother much with Facebook myself really! Also I think the various groups have helped raise the blogs profile a bit although everyone will be sick of me spamming all the group's 😂

    1. Hi oldbob, no particular set, I tend to play Lost Battles but hope to try a few sets one day or even attempt a homebrew set! Newline miniatures are lovely and a joy to paint!
