Pointy Sticks, Macedonians!

[FreddBloggs]

Not coins, 16mm washers so I could get them nice and tight. The base is the size of a business card.

[Essex Boy]

Yes indeed. Splendid fellows. Putting the transfers on the shields maybe a bit of a fiddle, perhaps?

But they look like they are mounted on coins and then placed in movement trays?

Oh yes. That's a bit worrying, I'd had a close look and concluded they were on a single base. A testament to the quality of the basing, rather than my rubbish eyesight........I hope.

[FreddBloggs]

14 More Pikemen. Still cracking on with these pointy sticks!

[Essex Boy]

Very nice.

Still no shield transfers though?

Not yet, phalanx will be 48 figs, then transfers in one batch.

[valleyboy]

excellent and more "normal" than your other thread

[FreddBloggs]

Normal is a setting on a washing machine. And cossacks are normal'ish.

Another 9 Pikemen done, these have been like pulling teeth!

It's been a long time since I painted completed units, but from what I recall, it's always the last knockings that are the hardest to finish - good job though. Two questions - (1) is the "uniform" hat historically accurate, or just something you've don to pick them out; and (2) is it not going to be a bit fiddly getting shield transfers onto guys this closely packed?
