Well it’s been a while... even got a warning that its been 120 days since a post !!!

In that time a bit has been going on.  But Notably more Romans of which I’ll post some pics tonight and few more tomorrow

First up some of the completed legions.


The white legion - First one to be completed


The Allied Iatalin Ala -  The blue legion for all purposes - really like the way these guys came out.


The Cavalry Division -  This was a long process - painting a cav unit at the end of each legion. 


The General in all his glory - I enjoyed painting this

Some shots of them in battle





Ill put up the photo of the red legion tomorrow - need to edit before i put it up. The 4th legion is underway and of course more cavalry as well - and I’m planning to do a Ala of Italian troop less legion like.

Anyway glad to see Lead Adventure in good hands and ill get more photo’s up soon.

Cheers

Amazing! Are they mostly Victrix? Which rules have you used them with?

Super looking figures.
Love them.
I am just starting painting Victrix Romans.
Looks like you are using 'To the Strongest' rules.
Am I right?
Just ordered them a few days ago.
Again, you have a really fine collection of figures.
Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Everyone.

To answer a few questions -  Victrix, Foundry and Aventine Miniatures are the ranges im using with the occasional warlord miniatures kit as well.

I intend to play and use the TTS rules but I and the Club i play with use HC rules.
