Strelets dacian cavalry

They got a bit of a bad review at PSR, due mainly to the addition of bods waving falx´s above thier head whilst on horseback...a two handed weapon infantry weapon, and the fact that Dacia didn´t really have much cavalry of it´s own..so these are more likely to be Sarmations.
I painted the standard with a bull´s Head because....well because I couldn´t come up with anything else :-/
Just to say I was on holiday this last week...I had access to a PC until tuesday when   the bloody thing lost contact with the broadband reception....!!!!!!!!!!!!!
All the recent posts were saved and put on schedule...so I haven´t been ignoring anyone and it looks like you´ve all been busy so I´ve a lot to catch up on...:-D

  5. Nice stuff Paul. I've got loads of HAT Romans to be painted at some point. I hope they turn out as well as your figures.
