[Archive] Pre Tamurkhan

JonJon:

I was into ancient Greeks for about 2 years and I built a spartan army,minis from crocodile games now these minis a heroic 28 32 s and I wanted to build a mercenary

Hoplite unit with a Achilles Ajax kinda character, here they are

Thommy H:

Is that Big Boris as Achilles?

JonJon:

As I was saying I was into historicals, but there was a problem every one else who played historicals played 20 or 25 mm and there mini came foms the 70 s, the above minis are marauder bodies with minimax head and shields,I think they look great but the rest of the community sort of looked down on my minis and me for daring to bend more towards fantasy in picking my minis. So instead of slapping some old farts I moved back to fantasy and picked the Tamurkhan and discovered this forum.

This is the best site on the net! Very creative and open to new ideas. I have had a ball posting here everyone here is helpful and friendly and I appreciate what you guys have created thanks for this site it is a real gift. Now I will be posting some more Spartans

Nice work, what are your phalanxes converted from?

One tip on the photography front, a plain background really helps with focus and would allow us to see the details much more clearly.

JonJon:

The Spartans are from crocodile games

Da Crusha:

very cool spartans. I wanted to make an army like that and instead only bought about 20 or so guys from wargods.
