Late Roman army ( 1/72nd )

A project started a few years ago...but never finished. I lost interest after seeing the excellent bods that Alex was producing...and went from ancients to medievals.
All bods from Hat or Miniart and all the shields hand painted...another reason for loosing heart
Back then (4 years ago)..I didn´t add bowstrings !!

  5. Love the look!

    I found MiniArt to be a bit of a disappointment for the LIR troops. The detail is a bit vague and the cleanup, for me, was kind of a pain. The Germanic troops OTOH were quite nice if not a little big compared to HaT.

  12. Hi Paul. Nicely done. Shields are time consuming to paint. I used decals with my Macedonian phalanx unit to speed things up.
