28mm Legion Project Finished - Team Photos
« on: March 24, 2021, 06:38:17 PM »




https://yarkshiregamer.blogspot.com/2021/03/28mm-italian-allied-legion-project.html

There were a few people following the thread I ran throughout the build on this project so here are some all done pictures.

223 28 figures in just under 3 months and probably the most white I've ever painted, god I'm looking forward to some blues and reds over the coming months.

I'm concentrating on Italian Wars again for the next few months so I will probably adding some Carthaginians to fight against these later in the years.

These are great! A stunning block of work.
I noticed the ancient Indo-European symbol on the shield in the middle, did the Romans actually use that?
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

I have an Osprey book that says they did, for what that's worth.

The Romans loved to plaster their buidlings with swastikas. In the floor tiles, as wall decorations, etc., so it isn't a stretch to imagine them using it as a shield device.
