Beautiful job there 👏🏻👏🏻

Pretty much sets the standard for all Numidians that follow I’d say.

Top stuff.

Thanks for sight of these, quite inspirational. I have several boxes of Numidian infantry, one of cavalry and the elephants. Can I ask one question about the size.  They seem to be quite large and in fairly dynamic poses. Can you tell me approximately the width of base you would need for 4 figures to fit comfortably in  .I normally base 5 figures on a 12cm wide base but suspect 5 figures in these dynamic poses may not fit very well.
 
Thanks,

simon

OMG... they look amazing !!!

You are still waiting for our shipment ? Are you in Europe ? The last 20 or so pledges got trapped in the UK lockdown.. if so, sorry for that...

This whole thing threw a wrench on our launch... we were hoping to be out in retail by now...

I love the colors that you chose for the tunics and the shields look really amazing...

Eager to see what comes next !!

cheers

Thank you all very much for the kind words....really made the day shine

......I normally base 5 figures on a 12cm wide base but suspect 5 figures in these dynamic poses may not fit very well....

Mine are based on 25mm discs...5 figures base to base come to 12.5cm so in my opinion without the circular bases would fit comfortably on a 12cm base

How did you do the tunic edging?

Winsor & Newton Series 7 size 0  :).....and gritted teeth  lol

......You are still waiting for our shipment ? .....Eager to see what comes next !!

Thanks Francisco...and please don’t worry - Kickstarter arrived just before the world shut down....next up will be the Velites from the Republic of Rome box  ;)
