Dacian main units finished for Si now, only need to do an extra light horse and some foot skirmishers now.
This lot nearly broke me, but they work well as a more colourful 'elite' pair of units compared to the previous warriors.


It's a lot of slicing and dicing


Slightly blurry, but shows the mass well.


Top view


Sarmatian mounted archers, great sculpts Phil!


One more unit of these to do!


Love their mounted mob effect


Superior lancers

(The guy at the back has a broken lance, but it is firmly glued in place and I liked the effect!

It's a big mass


I think they look the buisness


Rear view, red splodge on these and elite foot denote high status warriors




Average lancers, less armour you see


Still scary!


Charge


Close up of the mound


Sarmatian general




Dacian generals, Decabalus has the two Dracos




Love these


The elite in their box

Excellent, Will ! :-bd

Have to say....'scale' armour is not my favourite job to do on figures. :D

Cheers - Phil.

I imagine, that would just be boring.....But relatively straightforward, Ian ?

Trying to sculpt 'Scale' on '10mm' figures ? .....(and gee-gees).....horrendous. X_X

Cheers - Phil. :)

Light foot unit armed wth javelins completed for the army.

Only 4 to a base shows they are skirmishers

I think they work okay! They arrived on the Friday, and I had them painted and ready to go on the Saturday morning!
Mean and moody!

Did not lose them once on their first weekend out either

You didn't let the grass grow under your feet ... unlike the Dacians.  :P

Nicely done Sir.

Si's original list had two units of light horse.
Here's the second...








And we are DONE!

Great stuff, I really like how the formation looks messy with horses in every direction, it makes a great massed effect.
