If I may, look at the article at the top of the page

Ancient Scale Comparison (18.02.12 - Imperial Romans Segmentata)

It shows the makes you mentioned.

Got it, I was just double checking.

Impressive!!

And another one. This time some fervent cultists, obviously. I couldn't trace an original piece which the flamboyant shield design is based on (any advice is welcome), but it was just too impressive to leave it out.



Some background babble and a back view on my blog. Thanks for watching!

PS: A&A models and LBM decals, for the record.

Hey since they are blue and lots of the navy supposedly sported blue kit, say there part of the Rhine river patrol.
(And now i just read your Blog, and see why you dont want to use them as Riverines) -_-

[Mad Doc Morris]

Thanks a lot, guys!

what do you use for basis?

Renedra plastic bases with some wood filler, sand from the Baltic Sea and Mininatur tufts of various colours and sizes.

And here we go with the next installment. The following formation completes the first four SAGA points, apart from the leader, of course…



These four riders are the substitute for the initially planned 12-men unit of levy. Silly me, regarding my well-known "love" for painting horses. In the end, they were not that hard to do, and I assume that's down to the lovely sculpts. In game terms the horsemen represent an elite unit, the warlord's bodyguard. I tried to emphasise this by giving them some fancy shields and individually coloured equipment. Other thoughts on that and additional views can be found at my blog.
Thanks for watching!
