The painting is nothing special; I just wanted to get them done.
They can be fielded as six units of 12 if veterans, or four units of 18 when poorer quality.

A few more Italians
Have got a few more Italians done over the last couple of days. These chaps are (again) from the Strategia e Tattica Polybian Roman range, and although they are nominally hastati in attacking poses, they are going to be used primarily for my Roman Civil Wars armies, and have been based accordingly. With their mix of equipment and different coloured tunics they could be locally raised legions pulled together in a hurry, renegade Latins, slaves armed and fighting for their Roman masters - or slaves fighting against their Roman masters - Roman-trained Numidians, deserters in the east, disaffected Italians fled to Sertorius, Spanish armed as legionaries, ruffians gathered around Catiline, toughs pulled in to intimidate a crowd on voting day, etc etc. In short, they could be anyone or everyone. Should be quite useful, I think.

ReplyDeleteGetting them done is always something special, nice work!
Nice work, Aaron. Always satisfying completing projects.
ReplyDeleteA cool, colourful and useful bunch!
ReplyDeleteThey do have rather the mob look to them, don't they? Good work!
ReplyDeleteThe more raggedy the better!
ReplyDeleteNice looking figs. Could you point a way to a website? I couldn't find one. One of the reasons I didn't do the Punic Wars in 15mm was for lack of a satisfactory range of Romans. I had my eye on Fantassin/Warmodelling but then they went out of business when I was about to fire up my credit card. I managed to pick up Corvus Belli's Carthaginians before they retired their ancients lines. (There's a pattern here methinks...)
