Very nice. Which faction are you planning on using to represent your Romans?  I've been patiently waiting for the Saga Arthurian supplement, but it doesn't look like it's coming out any time soon.

Jolly nice for those who favour brutal sub-Roman warlords hell-bent of repressing peaceful, industrious, Saxon migrants :)

I'm sure that the Romans will be more than glad to leave the Saxons in "peace" - as in "Rest in Peace".  :D

Thank you guys!
@axabrax: I think I'll go with the anglo-danish as I think they'll represent the romans quite well. But to be honest I'm looking forward to the "Ravens Shadow" Supplement. I hope the Franks will do better :-)
@Lt. Hazel: But it ain't totally out of reach :D

Finally managed to get 12 Levies aka Limitanei ready.
(http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-mI2YC2SUjxM/UIWk0JlbnsI/AAAAAAAAACY/j45DbJIKjHY/s1600/Late+roman+limitanei+1.jpg)

Next will be 12 more, but this time I'll mix with some Musketeer Miniatures cause they aren't that over dynamic.

Magnificent! Did you paint that damage on the right shield with the wood looking through or is it sculpted?

Title: Re: Late Roman Warband for SAGA/ Dux Britanniarum
Post by: moiterei_1984 on November 15, 2012, 06:58:42 PM
To my blame I have to admit that the shields are decals by LBM as I don't get the freehands done as I want so the wood is "printed".

Recently I needed some distraction from painting the limitanei so I decided to draw my attention on the scholae palatinae. As they wear the lorica hamata they were easily painted up and much fun to paint.
In terms of SAGA they are counting as hearthguard worth 1pt. for 4 miniatures...

These days I finished another batch of Limitanei or more like Pseudocomitatenses. The last 4 guys are already on my painting table too just waiting for the final steps. Leaves me with 16 warriors aka Comitatenses and 3 mounted hearthguards aka Palatinae more to go until the project is finished... for now  ;)

Fresh from the painting desk, new leaders for Dux Britanniarum.
As Axebreaker has killed two, well actually three, of my nobles during our last game I had to replace them.

May I introduce to you

Flavius Pulcher & Turbiculus Ater (For those a bit interested in latin it should be easy to identify who is who)

If so, could you give me a pointer towards the supplier, please?

@all: Thanks for your kind words!

@WillieB: Yes. All my guys are to have 20mm round bases in the future. Definitely looks better for Skirmish gaming.

@Mason: It's a mat but only 30cm x 15cm. It's sold by some czech company I unfotunately can't remember the name of. It's the biggest one they have so I suppose it ain't the thing you're looking for.

Oh, I think it is.
I remember Hammers posting about it and just cant find it anywhere.
Time to bother him directly, I reckon... ::)

Thanks for replying.

Very nice additions! The paintjobs are fantastic, the small patterns you've added, e.g. the old man's Roman-style tunic, make them really stand out. Also, your painting style appears somewhat changed – if so I like it even better! 8)

@ Mad Doc:
I wasn't aware my style changed that much but you're probably right as one can see on the pic below. But what makes the civilians look that different is the slightly altered colour palette I used for the females and kids skin.

Here my newest addition to the force:

With these figures ready I now have 31 of 32 recommended points for Dux Bellorum  :D

Here you see a direct comparison between the new figures shown above and two archers I painted a year ago. You definitely see a difference in painting but I think it's close enough to be not too obvious on the table.

Agree, they aren't too different. And both, old and new one painting jobs are looking very lovely, well done.

Lovely.
Musketeer minis must be doing jolly well at the moment, given how many of us are currently painting these figures  :)

Heck, it's truly been a while  :o
I've painted a few more late Romans over the last few months, more or less the start of a new Warband for SAGA as I'm not really happy with my older efforts anymore.

Beautiful job. Superb colours. Great to see you continue to build and develop this collection, and I admire your dedication to improvement! (Even though your stanards where amazingly high already!)

Lovely work.

I actually spent Sunday afternoon with reenactors dressed as your senior legionaries. At Thorsby Park. I made their shields (only the centre one in this pic)and they were a pain in the arse full size ,So I can appreciate the effort and the overall effect you've achieved,I'd say your colour choice is spot on

Mark.

Amazing miniatures! Great vibrant colours on them. I love your bases too, do you paint them at all or is it left natural?
