Libyan Spearmen













Here's another post from the archives, these are Victrix Libyan Spearmen, with Victrix shield transfers. I haven't been painting much lately, I've been working on movement trays, gaming boards and terrain but do have some more Late Roman cavalry which are nearly finished, so will post those shortly.

  1. Superb figures,Mike. Victrix makes some of the best figures, and your brushwork shows them off all the more.

  3. Awesome stuff sir, I am using yours as guides to do mine when the storm blows over. Better than buying a book!

    Cheers

    1. Thanks Kevin, one essential book, if you don't have it, is Duncan Head's Armies of the Macedonian and Punic Wars. I use it almost daily!
