Leones Ivniores

I've finished the Leones Ivniores, the latest unit in my small Late Roman army.  I'm very pleased with how they came out; not the best photo, though (although clickable).


They are Auxilia Palatina, a cut above the first two units, the Martenses Seniores and the Armigeri Defensores Ivniores.  Every man fully armoured!  Hang the expense! 


Tomorrow I'll post the other units.

escuse my ignorance : who is portrayed on the shields ? Do we know ?

(oh and they re very nice !)

I'm not sure Greg, they look like a barbarian's head (and I've seen them depicted that way in an Osprey), but might they be a lion's head?

Lovely work, I love the whole completed army. The cavalry look great! I'm very impressed with the basing and the small rocks on the skirmisher bases, lovely work.
