Thanks guys. The sculpts practically paint themselves. Working on some Irish right now who are principally from a rival company - but they also include Pendraken's own Kiera!

Perhaps it's because I have just found out that I have to start working again from Monday, perhaps I was just enthusiastic, but in just about the fastest turn around ever - http://irregularwars.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/flavius-constans-just-about-last-roman.html

Really great pictures, well done (where did you find the Notitia Dignitatum reference for that unit too - dodgy dossier if there ever was one!)

Really well painted figures, and I really like the way you have done the 4 warbands. The late era Romans are great figures, and I must get more of mine painted.  That you had to use some MM figures for the Irish does highlight a bit of a gap in the Pendraken Dark ages range, as I had been looking at putting together some Saga warbands in 10mm but Welsh were hard to find figures for in PD ranges.

In the blog you mention washers for small bases - I found eBay is a good source for cheap washers I was able to get a couple of hundred 12mm washers for a quid or so. But it is strange that using coins is often cheaper than using washers!

I'll have to keep an eye out on ebay in future. The thought had'nt even occurred to me.

I suspect that the Late Roman Saxon figures could probably be used as Welsh - they are more or less generic spearmen with round shields. For a warlord you could use the Saxon leader from the Arthurian personalities pack (my Aethelwulf).
