Principes of Legio II




The good thing about these shots as opposed to the more "posed" ones with terrain is that here I've done a better job of showing the basing. In fact, you can probably still see some rogue bits of flocking on the figures here and there. I really like these shield designs; when this legion is done, it'll be interesting to see how the two sets of Romans look deployed side by side.

Hastati of Legio II




I've ended up taking these photos indoors, mainly because the outside light is so poor here now that it's not worth bothering. I've re-balanced the colours to compensate.

On the painting tray for November

In October, I painted 24 Hastati and 24 Principes for Zama; photos to follow later this week. I also revamped 8 Tarantine light horse; 12 Seleucid Agema types; and 15 Greek casualty figures. In November, I'm committing to 24 Principes; 24 Triarii; and four legionary command figures. That will complete the second Roman legion for Zama.
