With the arrival of TFL's Infamy! Infamy ruleset this year inspired me to once again travel back in time and dip my feet back into the wars of Rome and her enemies. I decided to start with Germans as I like their savage no nonsense approach to warfare as one could see in the epic Gladiator film and the fantastic range of Germans the Foundry range gave us those many years ago!

Superb Christopher.

You can’t beat a Copplestone sculpt for character. These are stunning  :-*

Very nice indeed. Great inspiration for the Copplestone Suebians that I just got in Foundry’s winter sale.

Looking forwards to seeing more. Wailing women and cavalry incoming?

Wow! Your brushwork on the skin especially. I'm still struggling to paint that level of definition!

Excellent paint jobs, they look hairy and fierce!

(Any javelin hurling skirmishers, I think Foundry made those too for Germans?)

Great work Christopher! I also like the "Gladiator" approach on your Germans. "Ihr seid vefluchte Hunde!" is the only phrase I seem to understand, however they don't speak anything else in the movie, do they? Hagen does later, but that's not German... lol
