I have been struck down for a week with man-flu, so it took
longer than expected to complete my Italian allied forces for the Roman Punic
war army.
I have completed 4 units if light-medium (FL) foot, 1 unit
of heavy foot, and 2 units of cavalry. I wanted the Italians to look similar
but different to my more regular Roman troops. I painted the plumes and shields
in uniform colours within each unit, but did introduce some patterning on the
shields and varied the tunic colours. I also did not use a maniple style of
basing, and I added a couple of velite figures to the bases to distinguish the
light-medium foot from the heavies.
Next up are the hordes of Celtic warriors. I have been
dreading these, but they can no longer be ignored!
