| Two units of 12 figures plus a three figure general's element |
 |
| The command elements - I've identified the general by by giving his element two standards. They're also a bit more ornate. |
 |
| The other ranks. I haven't bothered putting these together as distinct units - a unit will just be a command element plus three or five random other elements. |
 |
| Still not fully convinced that these are a good way of of painting horn armour. This lot gives me 4 12 figure EHC units in total plus a general's element. I've still got another 24 on unarmoured horses to do and that should just about finish this part of the army. After that, lots of medium cavalry... |
They have turned out very nice indeed, really look good.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
Deletelovely painted Sarmation EHC! very attractive to the eye!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm starting to get used to that method of paintng horn armour...
DeleteI think the horn armour looks pretty good, it makes a nice change from the all-metal look of many cataphtacts. The whole unit has a good 'look', colourful but not garish - very businesslike.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I still prefer the steel or bronze armour, I can't get round the old WRG definitions where full metallic armour means SHC rather than EHC... so horn armour it has to be...
