Parthians -Light horse completed- Aventine(17/4/2014)

[Aventine]

Hi Prof

Yes indeed there will be more including the command. The two piece figures can be set in a wide variety of angles, the photo maybe doesn't do that one many favors, it can go from that position to the parthian shot angle.

I am going to paint some soon and will post them here.

Cheers

Keith, they're awesome, though I guess the guy on the left is a two-part one? His body looks a bit odd, warped in some way

I think that's what you get with horse archers.... say they were right handed the only place they couldn't shoot would have been to their rear and to the right. Otherwise, nearly an all round arch.

I suppose that you already know this looking at your ancient threads (they be marvelous!  )?

We have finished them, 3 packs of 3 and a command set of 3 with the usual unit deal of 12.



PAR13 the command set.


PAR12 the 3rd set of archers


And here are just some of the heads that come in the packs( usually 5 in each set of 3 figures.


Cheers

Yes! Lovely bunch Keith, well done. An unit deal for me, please

[Atheling]

Brilliant sculpts as per usual Keith  .

They really look the business  .

Great looking figures Keith - another unit deal for order!  Is a mounted General Command group on the cards?  I do like the Sasanid command but was hoping for something 'Parthian' - Surena applying his eye makeup perhaps?

Very much looking forward to seeing the command pack! Mounted or dismounted or a bit of both? Any hints

Mounted or dismounted or a bit of both?

Hopefully, both

Re Command pack

I can't say at the moment, he has a plan in mind but it is rather unusual and may not work out, we will have to wait and see.

A command group based on Firuzabad (Parthians vs Sassanids)?
