Next up is an Aventine Sassanid 'Hero' and drummer. 

I'll use them as a sub-unit command base in my Impetus army.   The raised area was made with a Woodland Scenics plaster rock mould.  Again the shield is an LBMS transfer.
 








Once again, thanks for the comments so far.

Next up is my first unit of cavalry for the Sassanids.   I have a large number of cavalry to paint - A&A, Aventine and Gripping Beast.  These ones are Aventine and once agaion have the LBMS shield transfers applied.

 WOW
 Those guys are very colorful, are those shields hand painted or are those decals?

Persians allow one to get out all one's artistic juices.  Are those colors fuschia, ... and periwinkle?

They are seriously nice looking.  I did some Aventine Eastern Persians from this range and they are fantastic figures.

Very nice. I need more Sassanids like a hole in the head but I might get some of these ( plus other stuff) before Aventine packs up next year.

Thanks to all for the great comments. 

Tom, the shields are LBMS transfers with a painted rim to extend them to the edge of the shields.

and apphila - not sure about periwinckle but it is a Reaper triad that starts with a paint called "Burgundy Wine" - and no it tastes rubbish.
