Goths - Front Ranks

At the risk of stretching myself a bit thin on the painting front, between Steppe nomads and Italian Wars Spanish, I pressed ahead with basing the first two ranks of Goths. There will be a further two ranks (three bases) of lesser armoured miniatures to back them up and another six units of foot as well as many of cavalry, not to mention several units of bowmen! At the moment I'm still waiting for the gloss to settle on the final six miniatures before matting down so I'm guessing the unit will be complete in roughly a week.

For more pics and info on the reference material used for painting these chaps up please feel free to visit my Just Add Water Blog:

They're lovely sculpts though there was quite a lot of extra metal on the castings. Not flash but lumps. They could do with remoulding but hey, they came out nicely so who's c0omplaining :)
