There is a blog called “The Waving Flag” blog.vexillia.me.uk. It is run by Martin and from the Vexillia Miniatures stable.
Casting my eye over the blog entries in the 1500 plus wargames blogs site blogs.blogspot.co.uk, I encountered Martins article on super armies for ADLG. Now thats another ruleset I have, like the look of and even played a bit.
Anyhow I noticed his site had some tips and I had a quick browse. And in there was his item on wet pallettes. So it was made in 2016! but so what – the Romans invented pretty much everything we reinvent today including mobile phones of course, not to mention some central american ancient civilisations who had mastered space travel before europe was even dreamt of. Some jesting in there I think.
The point is I have never tried a wet palette – the concept passed me by. I gave it a go and hey presto I got several days out of some acrylic paint I would normal have discarded.
So thank you to Martin at The Waving Flag
The first beneficiaries are my Hatt 1/72 plastics “El Cid” cavalry. More of which in a future post.
Oh and statistically according to Martin there are no super armies in ADLG. So all is well.
