Very nice!  I love the tunic colours, very Macedonian.  A riot of colour.

Very nice and a subtle difference in helmets and armour from the Pyrrhic types - it will look good on the field.

Splendidly colourful, hope those pikes come with a health and safety warning, but I suppose they are high vis.

Nice figures and great paint job. May I ask how you painted them?

Thank you very much everyone. :)

@MarkW.

Carefully. :D

Seriously though most of it done with a grey undercoat and the usual shade, base, highlight on the figures with the exception of the bronze which was given a wash and the bronze reapplied. The transfers I blended into the shields and did a little extra highlights on them.
