Ancients Painting Club (completed)

[Orctrader]

Thanks chaps.   

[Captain Blood]

Excellent paintwork Malcolm, you're the White Wizard  .......................Alex must be the Red Devil 

Chris, that makes you the Blue Nun 

Kenneth Williams as Caesar... Brilliant Malcolm 

[Mason]

That Caesar is amazing!
 

[Bugsda]

Chris, that makes you the Blue Nun 

I'd prefer The Black Prince or maybe  The Grey Eminence, but definitely not the Brown Derby 

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Damn good entries, sebastofig and Orctrader! Especially that Caesar is a quite the mini of the day on LAF for me!

I'm still going down the road to Rome. Another Black tree Design figure and now we knoe (thanks to Redzed) it's sculpted by Richard Ansell. Lovely sculpt but the cast wasn't very good to be honest. Like his face best.

Entry No.73: Early Imperial Roman Aquilifer
btw, Aquilifer was the guy with the eagle standard (aquila), so a very important and much prestigious position within a legion.

Caeser does it for me 

That's a very broody figure Alex, great stuff 

cheers

Another great BTD Roman, Alex.  Great face.

...Especially that Caesar is a quite the mini of the day on LAF for me!

LAF mini of the day, from the Prof.  I'm honoured.   

[Admiral Benbow]

Lovely entries again, chaps, a real great show!

Here comes the last one of my "damaged lead" program. As I had no roman miniatures myself when we were working on that "Mona Insula" project back then, I'd got some failcasts with a leg missing or some other bad effects from the guys. I did my best to use them all.

From ancient D-Day, here is Marcus "Flatnose" Tiberius on his way to the swampy coast of an unknown hostile land ...

Entry No. 74: Imperial Roman Legionnaire

Manufacturer: Wargames Foundry



The last one of my entries.
But the finished vignettes will follow promptly.
 

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Famous, Michael! A phantastic idea

[Orctrader]

"Man in swamp" from the Admiral.  Really works for me.  Very effective.  Looking forward to the vignette.  

[Mason]

What a wonderful idea, Admiral.
Genius!
 

And equally wonderful in execution.
 

[Admiral Benbow]

Alright, as promised, the finished vignettes:







 

[Svennn]

Tremendous.  And knowing your ingenuity I bet that base fits into a larger one too doesn't it

[OLeary]

That figure in water is gorgeous and what a brilliant way of making use of him.  And your vignette is very moving.

[WillieB]

I've never enjoyed a thread as much as this one in years!
Lovely entries all and very, very inspiring.
