Carthaginian Spearmen
Posted by chicagoterrainfactory in miniatures, painting on December 21, 2023
A unit of Carthaginian Spearmen. Figures are a mix of Vendel Macedonian command and an unreleased line of Punic figures by Gorgon.
After painting Italians in bright primary colors for nearly six months, I needed to change up my pallet. Colors are terracotta, grey-blue, khaki and brown leather. Even the whites are not pure, with a touch of grey included. Shield decals are from the Carthage Must Be Destroyed kickstarter.
Paint Plan:
Terracotta shade + Tan (Game Color) for the reds.
Heavy Gold Brown or Plague Brown for yellow details & shields.
Khaki Shade, Grey Liner, Khaki Highlight for off white on the Pteruges.
Dark Sepia wash directly over the spray brown + Oiled Leather on Pteruges.
Armour: Ebony Flesh (either in full, or black lined), Dusky Flesh + either Glacial Mist, Desert Stone or Khaki.
Highlights: Purple + Runic Glow
Shields: Dragon Blue. Wolf Grey + Wolf Grey/White
Etruscan – 1st Division Complete
Posted by chicagoterrainfactory in Hail Caesar, miniatures, painting on December 8, 2023
First Division of the Etruscan army is complete!
Arranged for the Hail Caesar rule system: Etruscan 2nd class, Army General & Division Leader, Etruscan 1st class. Etruscan 3rd class, Axe Men, Etruscan 3rd class.
Agema Command for the 2nd class unit
Funny story. I was building the 2nd class unit, and finding myself short 4 figures to make a 16 man unit. I kept wishing that I had purchased the command squad for 2nd class. Digging in the lead pile, I found a old command squad from Agema that I had purchased pre-kickstarter. Turns out, they are from the same dolls that the 2nd class command were made from and the figures fit right into the unit without issue!
