Final Agemata WIP


A titanic effort this weekend, has seen the Agemata Basilikoi (Royal vanguard) completed and stuck to their bases, ready for gunking.  They will be brigaded with the Peltastoi (in red, on the left), to form a single unit, on the left of the Ptolemaic phalanx.  Figures are mostly Foundry, but there are a dozen converted Polemarchs amongst the Agemata.

I can happily report that I now have more than half of the phalanx units painted and on bases  (1.2m out of the required 2.2m); it's all downhill from here!

  1. Superb looking unit/brigade.
    Over 2m, you are like a Trojan workhorse.
    Cheers,

  2. Thanks chaps!

    Pat, it is as large a project as I can face. I will be very pleased to get them finished, so that I can paint something that isn't carrying a 100mm pike.
