Late Roman Armoured Infantry
« on: January 02, 2023, 06:52:35 AM »
I had some fun over the holidays painting up this 8 man unit. The fig is my sculpt and isn’t commercially available for now anyway. I’ve got some Victrix Late Romans as well so I’ll be able to do up a few more assorted units to compare.

The late Roman fig beside a venerable Ral Partha Roman from decades back.

More protein in the diet in the late empire, clearly! Seriously though, those are beautiful models.

I really like it! What did you use to the sculpt?

Thanks! Master figs are a little beefier to compensate for the inevitable shrink when they go into production moulds.

I like what you've done, both the figure & the painting.
There WILL be a clamour for the figures to become
available to the masses.
Good luck.
What is planned for the rest of the 'Range'?
