Still waiting on some Litko bases to finish them off, but here is a box of Late Roman Cataphracts by Gripping Beast.
Very nice kit with minimal parts. The painting process was fairly simple too - black undercoat and dry-brushing with metallic colors.For SAGA, these would be part of a Hearthguard unit - which I'd likely double up to an 8-figure unit. Kind of a steamroller unit. They have 5/5 armor, but Medium movement distance. Anyway, figured they'd look impressive on the table.Next up are the Light Cavalry with bows. Thanks for stopping by and checking out the blog. Best wishes to you all!
Lovely looking cavalry!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michal! Appreciate the nice comment. Best regards, Dean
DeleteSerious looking horsemen, Dean. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jonathan! Best regards, Dean
DeleteThese look great Dean and should add a real punch to your Saga force!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Keith. It's good to have a few units to select from for a warband. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteNicely done Dean I have a number of metal Cataphracts to paint up at some time in the future
ReplyDeleteThanks, Matt. These seem to be pretty strudy - the kontos in particular seem very good for gaming. I actually pressed my hand on a few by accident and they were none the worse for wear. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteBrilliant looking Cataphracts Dean; the different colours on the horse armour work really well.
ReplyDeleteThey will be a great addition to your warband.

Thanks, Ross. Hopefully I'll be able to get them into action soon. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteGreat looking cataphracts, I've got some metal ones primed, these look ace!
