Welcome to the Cave o' Caerbannog

 

Progress Update Legion XIII Gemina - 10/25/2011 

So it has been a year; a very chaotic tumultuous year. I have been painting a lot during my blog hiatuses, but I am back.

In the interim I have painted a complete WHFB Vampire Army, many, many Flames of War units, some 28mm US Airborne and a few other things (pics to follow this time).

As for my legion, a few things have changed. The name for one; I had decided on doing the VIIII Hispania before the movies Centurion and Eagle came out. They are both about the VIIII. Frankly, it took some of the uniqueness out of it. I changed the designation to the XIII Gemina. The XIII was one of the legions that Caesar crossed the Rubicon with, so I settled on that.

Tim, them call him...
