18 mm Early Imperial Romans

The start of a new project. Blue Moon early Romans. 

I plan to do a few units based in the same way as my recent Greeks. 

I did replace the Pila with broom bristle, but otherwise the figures are nice. 

18mm Greeks Completed!

 

This project was 5 months in the making and consists of 96 hoplites, 16 peltasts, and 16 mercenary cavalry. Not a bad rate for me! The infantry are AB Figures, and the cavalry are Xyston. 

Peltasts. Lots of conversions here to give some variety. 

Scythian mercenary cavalry

Spartans

Corinthians

Thebans

Athenians

Thanks for looking! 

18 mm Greek Update

I finished painting the last two city state hoplite units I had planned. These were the Corinthians and Boeotians. Now I need to finish basing.

My next related project is a little Scythian army. These are Xyston miniatures, and a good size match with the AB figures. Eventually I may do Persians and Thracians for them to fight, but for now the can be mercenaries in my Greek forces. 

The first unit will be a 16-man heavy cavalry unit. These are going to be densely packed like my hoplites, while the second unit will be 12 light cavalry dispersed widely on the bases. 

Thanks for looking. 

New project - 18mm Greeks - WIP

This is just a little update on my new project. These are AB figures. I will create two 24-man phalanxes to start - one Athenian, one Spartan. I will see where the project leads from there : D

Thanks for looking. 

The shields are hand-painted, as always. This figure is 90% done.
