Byzantine general - posted by Kevin O'Kane, 9 September 2024

General 3 of 3 for the Byzantines. I'm finding it a bit difficult to concentrate for long periods, so super slow progress. Painting notes: the Little Big Man Banners are excellent, but you can't get them to line up exactly when folded around a spear shaft. White edges have to be touched up; I've found that going one shade darker, then thinning the paint seems to produce an acceptable result.

Looking awesome. I have three armies with LBMS banners, not one of them ever lined up properly and colour matching when you are colourblind is painful. One thing I do is use aluminium tape from hardware, paint it white and put the banner transfer on it.
