After a bit of a break I've started a new unit Foundry and Victrix mixed in more so than the last few units.   I think it strikes a good balance between uniformity and movement and I have to now work through the pile of lead I bought in the UK  :D







More to come

These new guys look good so far! Good lines of miniatures there!

They do look great.
So tempted myself. I have a box of Victrix Greeks... Only ever made up and painted one...  :?

But one day... Just a small skirmish collection for 7th Voyage or something similar  :)

Those are terrific!   Super painting.

What are you using for the spent arrows?

Mixing the Foundry in but using Victrix spears and shields is very successful, they fit right in.  I'm curious about the priming, is that a white spray over grey or black?
