Unarmored Hoplites

Four bases of unarmored Hoplites. The last base is made up of the rear rankers I cut of from the AGR 8a Unarmored Hoplites Attacking strips. I also closed up the ranks quite a bit. Next up should be more hoplites

Hoplite basing conundrums

I have been struggling with basing the Baccus attacking hoplites. As you can see on the hoplite base to the bottom right in the picture the hoplites are based on strips with pretty generous spacing while the Roman Hastati in the left upper corner have tighter spacing. Another issue is…

Tarantine Light Cavalry

Seven bases of Tarantine Light Cavalry completed, with the seven bases of Thessalian Light Cavalry already completed I should have enough 🙂

Greek Peltasts

Eight bases of Greek Peltasts based as Light Infantry. I tried Army Painter Quickshade (Strong Tone) on these. Not pleased with the result so I am going back to my own recipe which is more of a wash than a “dip”. I tried thinning the Quickshade with some turpentine but…

Thessalian Light Cavalry

Its been incredibly hot so my painting slowed to a crawl. I measured 35 celsius (95 f) in my hobby room at one point, so I went outside and did something else for a while :). That said I have finished 7 bases of Thessalian Light Cavalry that will serve…

Psiloi Skirmishers

Just completed are 18 bases of Psiloi Skirmishers, 6 each of bow, javelin and sling. I probably spent twice the amount of time on the bases as I did painting the miniatures ;).

Italian Medium Infantry

I just completed four bases of Italian Medium Infantry. They can be used as allied or mercenary units in most of the armies of the period and can perhaps represent Campanians, Bruttians and Oscans. I am starting to get the hang of painting shields. Lots of room for improvement of course but…

Republican Roman progress shot

I took a picture of my progress so far. Three Republican Roman legions and an allied, or enemy, Samnite contingent. I started painting on may 16th, so in just over 8 weeks I have painted and based 1364 infantry, 126 cavalry and 12 generals, just over 1500 miniatures :). A…

Samnite Infantry

I am finally finished with 190 Samnite infantry to accompany my Italian Cavalry. The infantry are organized into two units of three bases for the medium infantry and two units of two bases for the light infantry. I will expand the light infantry to three bases sometime in the future. I…

Italian Cavalry

Its been a slow week but I managed to finish 3 bases of Italian Cavalry and a command base with some of the spare figures. The amount of detail on the small 6mm figures are amazing, and I now see that the command figures have cheek guards on their helmets…
