Airfix Persians

While going through various boxes I found these old figures - Airfix Ancient Brits converted to Persians. I've had quite a few different Persian armies over the years.

  1. Wonderful conversions. Back in that time one could make nearly everything out of the britions with just a sharp blade, glue and Banana Oil......Great

    1. Oh yes. Romans converted to Macedonian phalangites, 'Flavian' horse archers from US Cavalry with Roman archer tops, other US cavalry to cataphracts using wood glue hardened toilet paper... there are bits of everything in my attic. Of course, I still use 'home made' chariots. The mass of Garrison 20mm conversions I produced had a very long genesis.
