Taking Mr Bloggs’ advice, I decided to crack on and paint the third of the minimum five legionary units I need for my Marian Roman army.

As he said, that way when I come back to them I will have already painted over half the legion, so the task won’t seem too great.

A bit of excess flock to remove, but these are effectively cohorts five and six, or should I say V and VI. For the record, these are Baueda figures ordered in the UK through Magister Militum, and painted mainly with GW Contrast paints.

I’m now going to give myself a break and paint some ECW artillery!
