Here is a unit of Samnite infantry that I've finally finished painting. They've been stuck in the painting queue for a very long time, so I'm glad to see the back of them! The figures are from the plastic Victrix set, Armoured Samnites with Victrix shield transfers. In this post I've added photos of other Samnite units I've painted to date, they're all labelled to avoid confusion. The Crusader figures are painted as the famous Linen Legion mentioned by Livy in his History of Rome (9.40 & 10.38).

Are you going to run these in a pure Samnite / Itallian list? Don't often see those armies, nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThanks fmb, yes I'll use them as Samnites for ADLG and Impetus. They're a very colourful army that you don't see that often.
DeleteStunning! Love these figures - they all go so well together.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, looking forward to a game with these against Camillan Romans.
DeleteSuperb work on your armored Samnites! Love how they are packed so closely with vibrant and unique shield patterns.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, they're very colourful with all the shield designs, tunics and helmet crests.
DeleteWow! Those are great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Gonsalvo.

Thanks Iain, I hope to get in a game with the Samnites against Republican Romans soon.
