Starting with the British I am now getting the armies painted for Black Powder.
The British (3 units of infantry, 2 units of cavalry, 2 guns and 2 officers) are now painted (guns need a bit more work) and with basic bases. I intend to add rocks and grass to the bases but that is for when I have a bit more time. Figures have been painted in 'heroic' fashion so white helmets instead of dyed. Infantry mainly Wargames Factory. With cavalry, officers, guns and kneeling infantry Empress Miniatures.

Redesign of 25mm Spartan and mixed hoplite designs transfer sheets.
Whilst trying out some of the 25mm Greek shield patterns on the new Wargames Factory plastic hoplites, I noticed that the edges of the transfers were creasing. That was because the carrier film (varnish) could not fit the slightly domed curve of the shields. Now the transfers for the Spartan V (GG5) and mixed hoplite designs (GG8) have been redesigned to only have the
minimum amount of varnish needed. As I hope you can see from the attached picture the transfers fit the shields much better (on the right) and will improve application on all Greek shields, from whatever manufacturer.
You can clearly see the wrinkles on the old designs (left of picture) but there are none on the new version of the designs.
