Good work. The command stand really looks superb!

But shouldn't it be a GERMANIC memorial? After all, it was a germanic victory!

Ah, it's a memorial to the fallen, rather than the victors.

A dramatic victory, though, nonetheless!

Nice. I like that you painted the vexillum straps blue. Who says they need to be plain leather!

Are you getting the Teutoburger Wald special issue of Ancient Warfare Magazine? I have a nice little map in there!

Hi Andrew, yes my order is in. I'll look out for your map!

Two things...I love the writting on the base...very nice, and I love the leaves! I will have to order some of those when I find the time. I also like the way you have all the characters in there from the illustration. Great stuff!

Hi Secundus, I'd guessed you'd like the leaves. They do them in green, too, and I'm going to try flocking some trees with them.

I was sorely tempted to put the slave in the background with the mattock in, but he wouldn't have fit on the base. Crusader do Republican figures that could be converted...

I just found out my map was left out of the magazine! The article was accidentally printed with the temporary sketch! I'm gutted.

The map might appear on the AW website, or maybe I'll put it on my blog.

Hi Andrew; sorry to hear that! Which diagram was it?

It is a map of the Roman fort at Haltern, appearing in Duncan Campbell's article. The map that was printed is actually a reference that was inserted "temporarily" for layout purposes. It just never got replaced with the actual final map. These things happen, especially on a project with such a tight deadline.

What a shame, Andrew!
