These are all from Black Tree Design. I did eight of them because my Other Hoplites (made up of Crusader Miniatures) have eight – which I really like the look of. These are considerably more dynamic than the Crusader minis… but I hoped with some creative shield overlapping I might get eight (or at least SEVEN – which is how many Jackson was able to cram onto his stands!).
As it turns out I was able to cram seven on to the 60x40 base. I should finish that up tonight and hopefully you’ll be able to see then on Analogue Hobbies tomorrow, and back here on the weekend sometime!
Coming soon on Tim’s Miniature Wargaming Blog:
The FINISHED hoplites… then something else… not sure what.

Nice job on the shields--is that some sort of bug-man on the left?

ReplyDeleteVery nice, Tim. Looking forward to seeing them based-up.
ReplyDeleteExcellent work, Tim - Ancient Greeks are growing in popularity as I see Victrix are releasing new plastic sets over the summer.
ReplyDeleteOh, I see it now! Yes, an owl.
