This particular lot are a third of those I'll need, as there were 5,000 Medes, Cadusians and Carmanians. Identification of quite what they were is problematic, so I'm going with a Median look, perhaps from an earlier period, with modern weaponry supplied from Seleucid armouries. That's my excuse, anyway.
Looks ace! Those are fine models, good to see them treated so well.

Cool. What are you going to use for shields? Hoplon, wicker, smaller macedonian style?
ReplyDeleteThose are very, very nice.
ReplyDeleteLooking great! Seeing those trousers, might it be worth mixing in some line phalangites in trousers? I have some if you need any.

Hi Simon,
ReplyDeleteWondered where you wer going with that idea, then thought some more...yes, I think that might well work, actually. A couple of head swaps for the guys in hoodies should work a treat!
Fireymonkeyboy, I'm going to give them oval shields from Aventine, as that was the fashionable shield for non-pike at the time I'm trying to cover!
Regards,
Craig
Those are really, really nice!
ReplyDeleteVery nice! Great work on them!

Quiet fond of Crusader figs, and I think their Persian range are particularly nice. Doing a good job on these Craig.
