Oscan cavalry (1 pose + command)

Is there any chance of making 1 of the oscan javelinmen and one of the Samnite javelinmen as armoured (i.e greaves, triple disc or square cuirass and helmet and shield) and one of each as unarmoured (i.e just helmet and shield)?

(never mind - not important really - even if they're all armoured can still use certain poses or paint them differently to differentiate elite troops from ordinary ones)

You are right, and originally la idea was slightly different: light javelinmen oscan generic, heavy infantry oscan, equipped as you said, and samnite, with the samnite shield and feathers, but decided to make it slightly simple. Anyway, I take note of your preference ;)

I would love to see this discussion continue.  Phobos, did you ever finish these minis?  These would be a perfect addition to my Pyrrhic and Roman collections!
