New V and V Elephant.  Very nice model !   Easy to assemble w minimal clean up work.   Only issue was the long spear.  Needed to use a broom stick spear and attach the spearhead and butt spikes.

Roman Alae  -- Victrix.   I went for the battle weary look w some sword slashes in shields, dust on lower parts and a smattering of dried blood. 

I'll do a block of 4  more with the more dynamic  Agema plastic figures next.

Beautiful work all around, but that elephant is especially nice! I really like the colour palette you used, and the bronze in particular.

Thanks PM.  The bronze if  quite easy. I base c  Vallejo Tinny Tin,  light dry brush over w  Vallejo Gold and then some Army painter  Quickwash -  purple, dark or even the flesh wash all work well.

Thanks for the information about how you do bronze, using a purple wash never would have occurred to me (but in retrospect it makes sense that purple would make suitable shadows when applied over an essentially yellow metallic paint).
