Big Red- been following your blog on my emails, and am now popping in to comment. Your Romans are fantastic, and I particularly loved your vignettes. Thanks for the inspiration! Cheers Thomas
Thanks chaps! These minis have come on a long way since the photo, they should be finished (sans shields and basing) tomorrow night.
Foss, I will be painting 3 or 4 more command stands over the next 2 months, do please keep popping by!

This is a unit I bought (poorly painted) on eBay, with a dozen additional figures primed and added. They are going to be a Cohors Equitata, but not a standard auxilary unit... more anon. Since the above photo they have had 2 more painting sessions and are now pretty well blocked in.
Before the game on 2/9, I have these and another similar cohort to paint and base. I also have 2 painted cohorts of auxiliaries to retouch and base, two cohorts of Praetorians to add shield designs and base, and hopefully 42 more cavalry to finish/base if they come back from the painters, in time. Lastly, I need to paint some command stands: busy, busy, busy!

I've been crying, Paul, eye strain! You have been known to churn out a few minis, too...

Happy to hear you're salvaging these guys. I still need a cav unit for my EIR army. Best, Dean

You seem to have a knack of finding these things on ebay and bringing them back to life!
Well done and thanks for the half year review of the troops!

You are getting yourself a good size Roman collection. Look forward to seeing this unit completed.
