Plan f replace Artemis with Eris, Goddess of Strife whose colour was black.

Light troops can be dedicated to Artemis, and wear green.

Seems more appropriate.

First "legion" done. :) The "Red" legion. Starting the second the "blue" legion. Also going to do a yellow and a black. Thinking of naming them "Fire", "Water", "Sun" and "Night" or something more romantic than just the colour.

Lovely figures to paint :) , even getting quite good at putting on the shield decals.
Great work on these - and very speedy too - they were only announced a month ago!

Thank you.

I have been keenly awaiting their appearance. I may have mentioned it once or twice.   :-[

Also, I took this week off work so had plenty time to paint. :)

I do think I recall the odd mention of Amazons, not more than once or twice a week  ;)

If you painted them last week, you were doing well not to have the paint dry on your brush.

Amazons so far - 4 x 72 hoplite units - dedicated to Aphrodite, Hera, Athene and Eris (who popped down from Olympus to have a gander, but respectfully kept behind the fences). Each hoplite unit has a 36  strong peltast unit attached, and some priestesses giving spiritual comfort.



Hoping to add Artemis's skirmishers and mayhap some cavalry dedicated to Demeter at some point.
