I am working on a Bruttian Allied force for use on the Italian Peninsula, either for themselves or as Allies to others.

Some days ago I snapped a few pictures with my mobile phone, of the first unit I made. They turned out... well... take a look for yourself.





Pro-tip, don't use your mobile phone, when trying to take good pictures, with only artificial light on.

Very good work Clauss. I like the shields, they are historically accurate. Blue is nice too. Good choice of colors. The only thing I don't like is the uniformity but as you explained the reason is to make the units stand out on the table. I'm waiting for the rest.
I'll probably paint Italians too. As many days as we have been talking about it, the idea came to me.

I'd love for you to paint some "Oscans". :)

Yeah, the uniformity is needed to be presented as a unit. Still I did do some stuff to make sure it was not all the same figure, or the same patterns on each shield...

Probably Samnites and Campanians. But not yet.

Cool.

Willl you be mixing HäT and Linear-A figures. Some of the ones available in the Linear-A cavalry set, are labelled Campanians, and there is a Campanian in the Hannibal's Triumphant return...

Belle uniformité pour cette unité.

Yes, they are supposed to be somewhat uniform. ... Although this is just an ongoing project here... Finished pictures will be later. :)

Almost done now. Need to paint 6 more figures :) Looking forward to taking some pictures of the whole group :)

Now that I am nearing the end of the Bruttians, I could use a figure to be a General of sorts. Any suggestions to which figures I could use or perhaps convert to get one? I have been looking and not really found anything. Maybe the mounted Roman officer from the Roman Command set that HäT made. He could have a headswap. The question becomes, would a General for those have pteruges? Another figure I've been looking at is the Volsci figure, or the Ligurian with Sword from the Linear-A Samnite/Ally cavalry set. But I am not sure about the Armor on it.

The "Last Paint" is now drying. That's right. My Bruttians are as good as done. :) Now comes the part we all enjoy, or mostly enjoy: Showing off what we've made. Weather is so-so, no sun to see, maybe pictures will turn out to be bad, when taken without the flash. I will have to test...
