Some images of the Victrix Romans with Aventine officers that I have been painting.

Very nice work David.
Always attracted to Punic Wars, but never been sure on these Victrix plastics - however the transfers, tones for the bronze and great painting on those faces really does it for these figures!

I have been fighting the urge to get myself a Republican Roman army. This thread is not helping - At all!

These look fantastic!  Well done!  Do those shield transfers come with it, or are they third party?

Fantastic painting. Where did you get the head of the centurion on the right?

Looking good, but need ten times the numbers. Don't stop now.

Great work on these fellows, interesting how well the Aventine officer fits in.   Recent post on the Victrix Facebook page illustrates how with some judicious use of spare heads from the Greek hoplites and Samnites these fellows would also make later Etruscans.

Well, that's some flawless brushwork, as we've come to expect from IMRIE^TM. Looking forward to the finished unit. Surely a little diorama?
Also a nice reminder that plastics aren't necessarily superior to good old lead. :D
