15mm Japanese Mythic Army

 IMO Alternative Armies offers some fantastic deals to help boost your 15mm DBA armies into the world of HOTT.  In one case, the HOTT1022 Evil Japanese Mythic Army offers a total fantasy army in itself, instead of the Epic Japanese Army listed in the rule book. I found the army sitting in a storage box that it shared with the HOTT1023 Xmas Army. The Christmas army came out of the living room window this morning, and the Japanese came out of the box. This post will only contain the figures that were started and never completed. The Goblins, and Oni will be presented after they have been entered into the Analogue Painting Challenge.

A Merry Christmas - Better late then never

 I purchased the Alternative Armies HOTT Xmas Army with the intention of painting it as part of the 2019-2020 Analogue Hobby Painting Challenge. Last year I was terribly ill with the flu (???) for almost seven weeks starting the week before Christmas. Needless to say, not a lot got done, and then tax season arrived.

HOTT1023 Xmas Army

Fast forward to this year. I got the army out and started work the week before the big event. (Christmas not the Analogue Hobby Painting Challenge). This year I choose to stand down.

Then on Christmas Day, I received the perfect gift. A set of painting brushes.

Suddenly inspired, by new brushes, new glasses and a sunny day, The army was completed.
