I've started working on the various bits and pieces I ordered to carve out my own little corner of the Burning Sands (see Croms Anvil for more on this game). Whilst the various characters, enemies, animals and monsters are now all prepped and primed and ready in the paint queue, I did decide to paint a pair of bronze statues - partially to try out a desert basing scheme:
These are 28mm Sumerian Infantry from CP Models - namely the Rear Ranks pack. They seem to work pretty well as statues (poses not overly dynamic) and they were good value to boot. The spears come separately - easy enough to add to the chap with a shield, the guy holding it in both hands needed a bit of bending of hands to get it to fit without bending the spear. Nothing too difficult, but something to be aware of.
I used a few different tufts on the bases - whilst I want a desert setting I don't want it to be only sand. I'm sure this will change as I work through the project as I use up (and restock) tufts, but it sets a decent enough tone to work with.
