Salve Auxilia,<br>
<br>
with these miniatures I want to try to make something realistic-looking. I have some Early Imperial Romans as well, and they're painted much as you do. I try to go for the "similar, but not the same" look for these miniatures (I'm a firm believer in military fashions) because they're part of my Cartaginian Army (as Roman renegades, or some such), and that's allready a quite colourful bunch. My 6mm Romans (Casearan) are painted with each maniple in the same colours, maybe not correct, but it looks good (and is easier to paint, a major factor when painting 3.500 of them)<br>
<br>
Just a few thoughts. <p></p><i></i>
