I'm hurrying to finish a new Roman army for the first To the Strongest! Tournament on Saturday week. I'm using the repaint eBay minis technique that I described in Wargames Soldiers Strategy. The knack is to get the minis from 3 or 4 different painters to match- retouching, ink washes and muddying up the shields does a good job of this.
I need to finish a cohort of legionaries, one of auxiliaries, some slingers, two command stands and a hero (the auxiliary cavalryman, who I've given a lozenge-shaped base so that he's not confused with a command stand). The other units in the army can be seen here; it is composed of the smaller Perry minis, with a few Warlord and First Corp for variety. The bases are Impetus-stylee.
As you can see I'm quite far advanced with the process; basing tonight!
