I still think of 28mm as being my primary scale, but the groups I play with are all about 15mm so at least I know these armies will get used.Lawrence Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626386564817082992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-11500613915913077182020-03-20T01:39:31.714-07:002020-03-20T01:39:31.714-07:00Some great looking "little" armies comin...Some great looking "little" armies coming together here Lawrence.Tony Mileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03046365128769273868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-9856503427412914442020-03-17T16:54:21.593-07:002020-03-17T16:54:21.593-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02883963768784085384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-5646152429424594132020-02-22T04:00:49.687-08:002020-02-22T04:00:49.687-08:00Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated.Lawrence Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626386564817082992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-6999869129780318312020-02-21T01:54:25.867-08:002020-02-21T01:54:25.867-08:00Excellent painting for such a tiny minis!!

One would think that some form of shield design may also have been important for unit cohesion, to augment the formal organisation that had been implemented.Lawrence Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626386564817082992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-23170202480074617752020-02-18T07:40:42.610-08:002020-02-18T07:40:42.610-08:00I applaud your use of painted shield faces.

We know they were decorated later, and for centuries, and we know about what was painted on the shields of contemporary enemies; I just don't buy the idea of blank wooden shields in the republic. We don't know what was on them; that doesn't mean we know there was nothing.Fierce Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18090834654986505790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-3334822447706795182020-02-01T20:52:17.181-08:002020-02-01T20:52:17.181-08:00Cheers Keith.

Even though they are solid for the most part, they make great terrain pieces and are perfect for Ancient gaming.Lawrence Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626386564817082992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-47362731044955726252020-02-01T20:51:03.053-08:002020-02-01T20:51:03.053-08:00Thanks Iain, they were a pleasure to paint which a...Thanks Iain, they were a pleasure to paint which always makes things easier.Lawrence Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11626386564817082992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-8254330028293790912020-02-01T15:02:44.469-08:002020-02-01T15:02:44.469-08:00Lovely looking figures Lawrence, you have done you...Lovely looking figures Lawrence, you have done your usual excellent work on them, and the villa is a very nice terrain piece too.rrosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07316317334203888350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3512576686142959856.post-597548600302279082020-02-01T14:00:08.253-08:002020-02-01T14:00:08.253-08:00Great looking Romans!

That way if we get stuck in a boring game we could play a few gladiatorial combats.
