Above is a (clickable) collage showing much of the army, which appears to be mostly Foundry. The army is so large that I couldn't fit all the photos in the frame, and so the photos of the right wing are missing.
The phalanx is extremely imposing! A total of 12 x 32 man units. Quite a wall of lead... I like the impact of all the lowered pikes, although all my own will be vertical for storage reasons.
I gather that there are 96 Companion cavalry, alone!
This looks like Alexander, to me.
There must be around 800 miniatures in the army, in total, and from what I can see they are almost all Foundry; by far the largest Macedonian army I've seen. Very impressive.
Beautifully painted and an impressive looking army for 28mm. But a little aenemic looking in terms of figure count and impact compared to the Macedonian phalanx pictured here:

Make good Yelmalians...
ReplyDeleteWhoah! Shocking and impressive.
ReplyDeleteHi Pat, I like the look of the Bacchus minis, but the 28mm pikemen really should be in 4 or 6 ranks, 'cos 2 ranks of pikemen is just sad.
ReplyDeletePersonally I love 28mm figures, because they have a lot more visual impact at big shows and for blogging.
I don't disagree, but it was the look of the phalanx that got me hooked on 6mm.
ReplyDeleteHi Pat, the 6mm phalanx is, indeed, very impressive.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I love the mass formations - Great work Mike!
ReplyDeletecheers,
