Late republican Roman army (1/72nd)

The last of my ancient armies...well for now at least: :-D
Bods mainly from Italeri but some from Caeser and comand bods (aquilifier and cornicen) from Zvezda

One of the biggest complaints about the Italeri set (PSR review here) is that there is two poses that are repeated 15 times each...but...........
......with a bit of bending ....
...and arm twisting ..................
.........you can get a hell of a lot of poses from them :-D
The  scorpian is from hat. The basket I weaved myself from pins and sowing thread.
The "bugler" is converted from the hornblower in the Odemars Oscan infantry set, the commander from the hat Roman comand set
