Ronin, 6mm City walls and painting

Hi!
I haven't been idle since my last post.
I finished the Village Elders House for Ronin. This was much too finicky for my liking. But I got there in the end.

Also, scratch built city walls for a 6mm ancients game.

They are only card quick builds but sufficed for the game. Pictured are the four towers, gateway, two long wall and three short wall sections. I should look for some buildings to put in it .
Pictured for scale are some Hittite chariots and foot. I think they are Rapier or Baccus but would stand corrected if anyone can identify them.
I have some Irregular Miniature light infantry that I will stick on the wall sections to be used as a garrison.
I may have a go at the Ishtar gate! But it will be a little plainer than the actual. It would take up too much room on the table I think.

Having completed the painting of the Austrian and Prussians I had, and a few I further purchased, I am turning my hand to other pieces in the lead pile.
Currently I am painting one pack of H&R Ancient British infantry I sneaked in with the order for the Austrian and Prussian Napoleonics. You may remember the four warbands from an earlier posts.

Along with, a 25mm 4 horse Persian Chariot from Naismith I bought on eBay some months, a year?, ago . At least it said it was Persian, which is true, but I think it is Seleucid and not Achaemenid which is what I wanted. I have trawled the net looking for a picture but can't find one as yet.. We shall see what it comes out like. One thing about the model is the flimsy nature of the axle. I am so afraid of breaking it. Another is the horses that go in the middle are a very tight fit and I had to bend the poles to get them in.. I want to paint them before assembling. Still time to look for a picture.

Wargaming. 25 mm Armies. 25 mm Ancients

Hi!
A sad end to last week.
I put two armies on eBay. These were the first armies I bought, together from the same seller if memory serves me well. Around 1981 I bought some Greek Hoplites with cavalry and bow. I also bought some Romans with the same. I think, now, they are s range Mini-Figs. I enjoyed them for a long while before I moved onto Achaemenid Persians, Late army unfortunately! They win once a year, if lucky!
As you can see from my postings I have been moving to 6mm in a big way in the last 4 years or so.
I am not sure how many 6 mm armies I will be painting. I have some ECW to do in the lead pile. I want to have a 6 mm French Napoleonic, and I have the Mongols in 15 mm and an unspecified opponent to do. Not too much is there!
Plus! Maybe, Frostgrave. Circumstances change and I know this may not be a realistic project anymore. Perhaps I'll get my sons to buy a job lot between them. Luck would have it.
