Imperial Romans progress

Spent a fair bit of time today finishing off the Imperial Romans.  Again, it's quick and messy painting but I just wanted to get them to the point where they are all painted and based.  I can tidy them up later on.

Here are some better shots of them.  As usual, click to embiggen.  Oh, and see the hills in the background?  I made them today.  They were a bit of an experiment and didn't work out quite how I would have liked but they are certainly nice looking and useable.

  1. nice painting of your army, just wondering why one of your Bds are 3 instead of 4 miniatures? you have lost some fig or the rule list allowed that option 3Bd? your lh its nice too, although i would have ad shields make them equites illyricanii! but thatsb my opinion!

  2. Yes, the Middle Imperial Roman list (which is the one I painted this army for) has 3x4Bd and 1x3Bd. It's on a deeper base because of this, which you probably noticed in my game reports.

    And I took the oval shields from the cavalry and gave them to the legionary figures to make my Ax.

    I got a whole MIR army from 1 box of Warlord Games Legionaries and 1 box of Wargames Factory Auxiliary Roman Cavalry!
