Title: Macedonians
Post by: Suetonius Paullinus on 29 March 2015, 11:31:17 PM

I revisited my plastic Macedonians recently and managed to complete the long unfinished fourth stand of eight.
They should be another 8 figs in the box but alas they went awol..

Impressive, particularly the flesh tones and basing.  8)

Just a question, which of the poses of the advancing Makedonians do think is best?

Title: Re: Macedonians
Post by: Suetonius Paullinus on 30 March 2015, 11:04:51 PM

Well, to be honest I don't really have any favourites and with only four poses as it is one hasn't exactly got an awful lot of choice..
In other words I like them all ;-)

Seriously, they are all nice enough plus I cannot think of a cheaper way to get a good sized phalanx!

Look really good are all the rest of your army similarly painted ?

Erm..that is my army so far unfortunately.
The next stand will be the same colour scheme in any case but I've got another box unopened.
I might paint them red. Generally I do like more plain looking units.
The cavalry might get more colours tho!

Excellent brush skills. They do look awfully spread out for a classical phalanx though?
My paltry efforts below:

I really eally like these! The muted colour scheme works well on them.
