Here are some progress shots of my second Batavian cohort. I've finished repainting (below) the 15 minis I bought on eBay; they have come out very nicely, indeed, and the fact they were bought painted probably saved me 4 or 5 nights work. In the background is the first cohort; I judge that the reinforcements are a little better painted.

Below are 9 other miniatures that will add a little variety; Crusader, Blacktree and Foundry. They should be finished tonight or, more likely, tomorrow.

Iron Mitten is painting some Batavians, too. His are perhaps a little earlier in period and, judging from the cartoon, will have oodles of character. I also aspire to doing an earlier cohort along the lines of these; one day...

Thanks Paul. I really like the minis; wish that they had done a few more poses...

They look very nice. Looks like our Batavian friends liked some colour on their shields once they got their hands into the Roman colour pots. :)
I got some figures today as well, though not of my own making, or painting. ;)

Excellent looking figures - as always. Dean
