My friend Craig Davies (who was one of the principle collaborators of last year's Zama project), has sent me some photos of some of the beautiful new Aventine pikemen that he has painted.
He says that the shield transfers he has used are LBMS, designed for Crusader, so are a little bit big, but they do go right to the edge of the Aventine shield with a bit of careful trimming.
He has based the colour scheme on this picture from the Vergina tombs:-
I think he has done a superb job! Lovely basing, too.

Now that is a stunning looking unit you have there. Looking forward to seeing more.
bloody good work! And they're not ordinarily painted either
Jolly nice looking unit.
Here's to the lads in pink.
Great looking unit. Beautiful colors and shield design. Dean
Superb!
Impressive! Love those shields
They look very impressive. I wouldn´t have thought that pink would look so good...but it does.
Cheers
