What spears have you used on these chaps Simon ? are they Aventine ? .... their nice whatever they are.

Thanks very much, all!

Tarty, they are simple metal pins, the apparent shaping just comes from the painting technique. I picked the technique up from the chap who I bought the first 20 hoplites from. I shall have to do a post on it!

A handy by-product is that the pins are relatively blunt, and have never drawn blood...

Cheers, Simon

Really excellent - maybe I should finish a few more hoplites with my next batch of Argonauts. Inspirational as usual!

Ace-panting and nice big crowded bases - just how I like it.

Foundry - sweet as always.
