Victrix EIR Legionaries - WIP +1

Rank and file are done - just need to add their shields. Standards and musicians need their animal skins worked on. Started with a black base coat, followed by dry-brushing the metal areas, then the flesh wash painted. Minimal colors used as the previous 16 Legionaries. Ink washes were applied over the block painting and then highlighted.
Along with the previous 16, they'll be in two 24-man Legionary units and a smaller detachment of Praetorians (the guys with white crested helmets).
Above image shows them prior to the staining and highlighting. No figures were "injured" by Minwax in the process - just Vallejo ink/stain.

Thanks for stopping by this brief update. Wishing you all the very best in health and hobby happiness.

  1. The first picture, you could plop those down on the table and call it done. People would still go ooh and ahh.

  2. Looking good Dean! I usually do the shields and transfers first after a white undercoat, interesting the different methods people use.

    1. Thanks for the comments, Mike. I went with a black undercoat mainly for dry-brushing the armor. Kindest regards, Dean

  8. You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me.
