1st Allied Legion: Hastati

I'm doing the two socii legions with white shields and tunics to differentiate them from the Romans, although there is no difference in how they fight. I've enjoyed painting these guys - red, red and more red was beginning to become rather wearing to do after a couple of hundred figures!

1st Allied Legion: Velites

The Velites I used for the two Roman legions were some Newline figures I picked up cheaply at Claymore a couple of years ago; these guys are by 1st Corps.

On the Painting Tray for January 2010

In December I finished more figs for Zama: 24 Hastati, 24 Principes and 12 Velites. In January, I'm hoping for 24 Principes, 24 Triarii and a command stand of four figures. That will finish the first of the two allied legions.
