This is an awesome showing of power. :thumbup: I'm just curious what size of their enemy army would be like in order to counter them.

We are just a few of us at Arnhem! ;-)

And welcome back Chen! :thumbup:

Dear Konrad,

What a hell of the job you’re doing here!

I’m impressed by the quantity and the quality of this work.

Once finished that would be an amazing sight!

Warm regards to you my friend!

Dear Konrad,

How many of these great manipels are in your planning?

And Mr. Chen asked you a very good question:

BB gave an answer to this question in another topic. The answer is two men: Asterix and Obelix and some boars of Stenfalk! :mrgreen:

A little update for my work on the cohort.
"Only" three centurias left. ;-)

A good tip is use three mirrors. One at the back and one either side to create illusion of extra figures that required no such painting at all.:-D Just funning!

Outstanding Look to all your work. :thumbup:
Many hours, days and weeks of work no doubt.
Thanks for showing this ongoing growing Epic! :-D BB
