These will be Psiloi in DBA... Not sure about HOTT...?
 
A few I have done a few of the left-overs on individual bases for more skirmishy/role-playing adventure games..

Heh... yeah...

I was thinking of going for a sort of Thracian look as that's where the Amazons theoretically originated from in legend... and a lot of Thracians seem to be illustrated as having white cloaks with stripes or geometric patters in various colours... so I thought I'd throw in an HBC blanket/cloak to see if anyone noticed...

cheers!

Next element: Amazon Priestesses!


Again, 28mm models from Wargames Foundry


Could be a Cleric or Magician element for Hordes of the Things... though how they'll tow that big stone altar around I do not know...


In DBA they'll probably just be "Camp Followers"


Next...? Maybe some Amazon Hoplites.... or Archers... or "Auxilia".... Or "Light Horse" all are cluttering the workbench with a multitude of odd and sundry items...

So many toys to paint... so little time...

What about an elephant? Don't think I have ever seen an Amazonian elephant.
