I finally finished the last eight speed painted Late Roman Archers to go with the first Legionary unit of my LR army! I say finally as they really do seem to have taken forever due to varnishing issues and the weather (I do a Humbrol Enamel Gloss coat before matting down so it can take time and is weather and humidity dependent).
These eight fellows were originally going to be painted a few years ago, prior to the Vanishing Disaster Incident, which put me off painting the army completely. Until this year.
As the Archers are integral to the whole unit of Legionaries I've included a piccie or two of the lot to give you guys and gals an idea of how the miniatures work together.
Please note, I am only claiming the points for the 8 Archers as the other 16 models were painted a few years ago!
FromDaveD , lovely work once more Darrell. I too use Humbrol Gloss , from a pot though I am switching over to using Screwfix Yacht Varnish as a hard protective finish and then a Matt down - we all have our own solutions. You must be pleased to get these done . I’m giving them 44 pts
Luvely minis and they so work with the heavy infantry
