Spiffing Legion Command Stand

These figures were painted for me by the highly talented Andres of EinarOlafson Painting, and constitute the command stand for my third Caesarian legion.   I based.  I think they are probably the best painted stand in my collection, do have a click...


They represent a Legate, Aquilifer and a couple of Tribunes.  My photo isn't the best... but you can see he did a fantastic job; just look at the faces!


Do drop Andres a line via the above link, if you need something very special painted!

Beautifully painted, just as a matter of interest, how much did they cost?

Hi Ray, these were part of a swap. I'm not sure what Andres charges, but I'd guess that painting at this standard is at quite a premum. He paints for some of the manufacturers. Top chap...

I really like the aquilifer, an interesting and unusual, yet quite appropriate looking interpretation. What was the base figure for him? Cause maybe I should copy that. ;-)

Thanks chaps! SG, I think the aquilifer s a Companion, or conversion from one.
