Greek Hoplites WIP 5

I got these guy done today the shield was given a pre decal wash (varnish will do ). then the decal applied (NB if you use the immortal miniatures decals note that each one must be cut out around the design as the sheet is one big decal not loads of individual one). I then use a decal softner which melts the decal slightly making sure it fits well and softens the edges. Next I hit it with a gloss varnish this gets rid of any signs of the edge and give a good surface to paint on. I painted some damage on the shield, my first attempt at battle damage. I give myself 8/10 as the lines need to be thinner and I need more at odd angles, but as these will be part of a 32 man unit I am not to fussed ATM.
