...but Light Infantry javelin armed skirmishers this time ~
The figures are from
A&A Miniatures once more. As the shields of my Numidian Light Cavalry were so well received I decided on a different scheme for these to see what folk thought. The poses are not the most varied or dynamic, so every little helps. As with the other elements in this project the MDF bases are 2mm 80x50mm from
Warbases. The basing texture is my mix of three grades of
Woodlands Scenics ballast, buff in colour, available in my local
Hobbycraft. I wash it after 24 hours drying time with
Crafter's Acrylic Country Maple. The static grass and tuft vegetation is from several sources.
At present I'm working on four bases of Gallic Heavy Cavalry from
Wargames Foundry. Their bold sculpting style is kind to my eyes if not my hand - they are quite chunky! I didn't like the shield options which came with them, so I've ordered some from
A&A Miniatures instead, as well as shield transfers from
LBM. When I have these I'll preview those figures I've so far completed.
A loverly bunch of skirmishers David.

They have a decent Ancient range and are compatible with Crusader Miniatures.
