Title: Late Roman Archers
Post by: killshot on August 26, 2013, 02:29:16 AM
Wargames Foundry Late Roman Archers.  I've mounted them on 25mm washers.  I painted them quickly and think that, despite the age, these are great miniatures.  :-*

True oldies but goldies, indeed. Interesting combination of red and blue there, works very well. Thanks for sharing! :)

Very nice, like both units. Faces and hair are great, make the unit look a more varied than the limited poses and heads should permit.

Very nice painting. I particularly like the brown/blue tunics. Can I ask what colour did you use for the brown tunic?

Thanks everyone.  The brown is Vallejo scorchered brown, then scorched brown mixed with Reaper Carnage Red, then carnage red highlights.

Great minis and I agree - I prefer the white tunics.

Thank you. It was the hint of red in the colour which threw me.

Amazing paintjob! The old late roman archers are still one of my favourites.
