III century 3rd legionary unit.

 

Hi guys,

I have been working on a third century legionary unit. For this unit, I have exclusively used plastic and 3d printed resin miniatures, both from Wargames Atlantic, plus a couple of plastic Gripping Beast bodies.

I'm very pleased with the quality of the Wargames Atlantic Digital sculpts, specifically the chainmail hoods and Lorica Segmentata bodies are very well done and researched in my opinion.

The shields have a "Relic Miniatures" decal sheet  used on them, I really like the design that this Canadian company has made, so I placed an order from Spain and it arrived quickly and without any problems.

The unit is based for Impetus, because I love this basing system, but I also play Hail Caesar.

I painted the unit by airbrushing dark metal vallejo paint all over the primed miniatures,  then basecoated all the colors, washes and highlights using the good old triad method with Foundry Paints and Vallejo. After that, I applied Ultra matt varnish with brush in all the non metal parts.

This is my "army" so far, 3 heavy infantry bases, I also need archers, mid and heavy cavalry, a general, Praetorians, Palestine clubmen, Palmyrene dromedarii...  so a lot of work to do, besides my many other projects.

I hope you like this little update.
