ALY MORRISON'S "BUTTERFLY" ADVENTURES IN THE WORLD OF WARGAMES AND TOY SOLDIERS

Late Romans… Yet more Re-Basing…

Greetings…

Here we have another batch of my Re-Based new Late Romans…








Most of them have had a little bit of a spruce up and new spears…

The Command group was put together from a couple of spare figures… Something my friend David Bickley does… So quite in keeping with this collection.

Some of these will work well as Romans or Barbarian/Goth types and one unit will certainly work nicely as Romano - British or Romano - Gaul.
There is another batch being worked on and I have been prepping something shiny…flutter flutter 🦋.

All the best.  Aly

    They look smashing Aly...rebasing is anathema to me, but if you can face it, all power to you!

    I'm liking these a lot and that's a very effective command base. It'd be hard to pick a favourite photo. I hope we get to see these in action.
    Oooooh, shiny is always good.

    They have scrubbed up very nicely Aly! The command vignette is lovely, especially the embroidered cloak on the foot figure, an idea I must borrow!

      Thank you Ian…
      To be honest it’s been easier than I thought it would be…
      But I will be glad when it is done.

      All the best. Aly

    The texturing / vegetation looks great. Are these on sabots? I can't see any joins, or are they just large multi-figure bases?

      Thank you Rob…
      They are on large multi figure bases…
      I am not a fan of sabots…

      All the best. Aly

      Thank you Mark…
      I’ve just finished doing some alterations to the castings for the next shiny unit… It’s a nice unusual one.
      I will post a W.I.P. Soon.

      All the best. Aly

    Nothing like giving figures a new start with rebasing. Late Romans are an interesting group (as you mention). Good for early "dark age" and post Roman (Arthurian?) Britain.

      The re - basing certainly brings new life to the units…
      I know they are going to be fun to play with… There is a lot of action /conflicts to pick from.

      All the best. Aly
