I’m frantically basing up the officers that I have, for command roles in the Ptolemaic army on Sunday. They are somewhat rushed, but will look fine from afar. Just don’t click! ;-)
The first stand, left, is the guard commander, Eurylochus the Magnesian. I've used Polemarch figures with a converted Foundry Perseus as a standard bearer, holding an Aventine standard.
The second stand, right, represents Phoxidas the Achaean, who led the Ptolemaic mercenaries
(thureophoroi, I
have assumed). He played a key role in
the battle, as it was their attack that routed the riff-raff on the Seleucid
left. Polemarch minis, with a Foundry standard bearer.
Ptolemy, himself, will be travelling in the Royal Mail today, from Nick. In the finest traditions of show games, the varnish will, no doubt, be drying as I drive up the motorway! :-)
They are scrumptious. I am sure they will be appreciated.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing these in person on Sunday!
ReplyDeleteYour command stands look great even with magnification. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteFantastic, very nice, excellent work. You know, all the good stuff. That aside, those are some blue helmets and I FRIGGIN' LOVE THEM!
ReplyDeletelook great to me!
ReplyDeleteThose are very nice. Particularly like the Phoxidas miniature.

Beautiful command stands. Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteThanks chaps; they really aren't that hot, I'm afraid, but will melt into the masses...
ReplyDeleteThis project is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI've certainly enjoyed watching its progress - well done!
Striking command stands, Simon. I quite like what you've done there.
