Roman Auxillia and Legate

 A skirmish unit that I completed for the analogue painting challenge. I will sell these as I am only using foundry now for my Imperial Roman’s.

Figures are a mix of plastic Warlord Games and metal Foundry. The vexillum, Cornu and are foundry, the optio centurion is Warlord metal the remainder are plastic warlord with LBM transfers. 






The legate is Warlord Games metal.

Chasseur Ardennais - FN 63 Trucks

 Chasseur Ardennais - FN 63 Trucks   

Additional pieces for my chasseur Ardennais. Completed three Early War Miniatures  FN 63 4RM trucks, really nice pieces, I am planning these to tow my 150mm Schneider gun battery, I need to add seated crew to one along with a towed gun. 

I have added SHQ drivers in two of them. I elected to darken the British scc2 green to more reflect to Belgian vehicle Colour. 



This vehicle will be the tow, I have set the rear lower and plan to add crew and artillery men in the rear. 




Cheers

Alexandrian Successor Elephant

 Alexandrian Successor Elephant 

Completed another metal elephant and added three crews, 4 plastic and two metal figures. The metal elephant I think it is black tree design. The plastic figs are from the Victrix elephant set. I used sabot bases so they can be swapped out easily as required.
