Dance of Bronze 23

Like all things, starting small is apart of the natural progression of the world. These skirmishers are a part of that, the seed if you will, that a fuller army will grow from across the coming months. 

These figures have not been selected randomly, as they depict Agrianians from the armies of Phillip II and Alexander III of Macedon. The later is better known by many as Alexander the Great - who coincidentally was born on the 20th/21st July 356BCE


The figures are from Wargames Foundry's the World of Greeks range and are a personal favourite for this period. 

When painting these the choice of colours was to enhance the figures visually on the table by using the brighter blue to signify a more prominent unit of skirmishers instead of beiges and buffs.


More from this period in the remaining months of 2021. 

Stay safe and cheers for now

These figures have turned out really well and very much look the part. The basing compliments them nicely.

Lovely figures, nice job!

Excellent Agrarians, Ross. At first, I thought they were Crusader figures at first (which I have a while back), but see they are Foundry. I think the two would be a good mix - if you ever wanted to try out new ranges.

Thanks everyone for your comments.

Dean, I have some Crusader Thracians that will fit in nicely with these in the future.

Cheers, Ross
