Victrix EIR Command Stands And The Army To Date
Apologies for back to back posts - I probably should've waited until the the command stands were done, but wasn't sure when, or if, I would've gotten around to them. In any case, I did get them done using the previously painted mounted "generals" along with a few spare foot figures. Also added shields to the standard bearers.
The officer on the rearing white horse is flanked by a Praetorian eagle bearer and signifer. The mounted centurion has a legionary signifer and the other officer has a legionary from Legio II Augusta.
I may add another command stand using the other figures from the Mounted Generals spure - three left.
Below is the EIR army to date. A detachment (or two) of Praetorians, four units of Legionaries (12-man units), two units of Auxiliaries (also 12-man units), and two units of cavalry (8-men each). Plan to use them with Hail Caesar, but could be used for other rules as the Legionaries and cavalry are individually based.
Taking a break from EIR's for now and need to finish up the Celtic Chariots - and maybe someday get started on the Polish Lancers. Thanks again for dropping by and wishing you all good health and hobby endeavors!

Romans look amazing! Lancers for which period?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bartek! Oh, sorry, I was referring to the set of Victrix Polish Lancers (Napoleonics) that I've had for several months now - and never got back to working on them after getting started with these Romans and Celts. :) Kindest regards, Dean

Thanks, Kevin! Yes, I went to phys therapy (first time in my life) last month and after a few sessions, I was able to really get a handle on my issues - I now do daily stretching & strengthening exercises which really help a lot. Best regards, Dean

Thanks a lot, Matt! Yes, slogging away with the paint brush - having a lot of "desk time" now that I've been teleworking from home most of the time. Kindest regards, Dean
DeleteNice work Dean. Do you source those sabots locally? I've been getting them from Warbases but if I can get them locally may be able to save a bit of postage.
ReplyDeleteI've been using Litko for years - I've rec'd great service from them - fast responses and shipping. I usually get my orders within a week. They're having a discount mailing right now (I think for $100 and over orders). They do special orders too - and not any more expensive than catalog stuff. Best regards, Dean
DeleteThanks Dean, I'll take a look.
DeleteThat's really awesome! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Michal! Warmest regards, Dean
