Not exactly collector's standard paintwork - took about 3 (shortish) sessions excluding spray undercoat and varnish.
Wasn't sure about cloth for the head but thought: they're armoured, surely the heads deserve some protection.

Can't have enough elephants...
That's my story, so when a few Minifigs armoured elephants came up on ebay I thought: haven't got any armoured elephants, need them for Seleucids...

Funny I said the same thing about my unnecessary purchase of yet more WWII German infantry (can never have too much) I think it's the preverbal collectors excuse for excess......Nice pachyderms none the less..,....)
ReplyDeleteYes, but the Germans had a lot more infantry for you to need.

Strange 'coincidence' about them - they came uncrewed, I had a load of archers that I thought were Late Roman, decided to use them for these... seem to be the right archer for the elephant anyway... so not sure where they came from now!
