The whole army, Garrison/Minifigs right flank, Irregular left |
The Garrison/Minifigs half - 2 Minifigs cavalry units, some Garrison archers and Praetorians and a cohort each of Garrison and Minifigs Legionaries. No javelin armed auxilia yet. |
The Irregular part, organised as 12 figure units. Not sure who made the artillery - have got a couple of Irregular ones somewhere. |
Minifigs cavalry on Garrison horses - riders bought ready painted but without horses. |
The infantry. Garrison archers, Garrison Praetorians, Garrison legionaries then Minifigs legionaries. |
A couple of close ups of the Garrison infantry. |
And views of the Irregular infantry |
Meanwhile, plenty to paint - 2 cohorts worth of Garrison legionaries. |
Excellent! Incompatible paint Jobs..I reckon, in reality, a legion would have looked a mixed bunch.
ReplyDeleteThank you. There will be times when, incompatible or not, they will serve together.
DeleteIts a good start. :)
ReplyDeleteI'll confess that I like the old Minifigs best but the Garrison horse are better than the ones they would have originally ridden.
Agree that Garrison horses are best, figures it varies -I think the best Garrison figures are as good/better than Minifigs, and in fact the marching legionary is, for me, better than the Minifigs equivalents.
DeleteThat brings back some memories! Great to see these venerable warriors - yes those Minifigs cavalry look very well on their new mounts.
ReplyDeleteThat Garrison 20mm horse mould has produced more castings than just about any other mould!
