Quinta Macedonica.

Finished these Footsore Miniatures late Romans for my Romano - Brits, I know that the legion were never stationed in Britain, but I like the shield design, let's just imagine that due to an administrative error some troops ended up being sent here, just when the rest of the legions were leaving.  :~)


Picked up this book in a charity shop for 50p, can't pass it up at that price can you?

I have only read the intro so far, it could be interesting.............................

      Thank you CM, it certainly looks encouraging from the introduction. It gets mostly positive reviews on Amazon.

      Thank you William. Must concur on Footsore, they are a joy to paint, very brush friendly sculpts.

    Lovely figures and very nicely painted, I am sliding down the slippery slope of a new period, the footsore site is very tempting!
    Best Iain
