1:1 Scale 6mm Romans

These haven't been finished that recently but I thought that I ought to put the pictures up on my blog as they do illustrate the really good mass effect you get from 6mm.

First up we have half of a Roman Cohort (3 Centuries - note that they are modelled understrength as most of the data we do have for Roman unit strength returns suggest that most units were understrength though cavalry Ala do seem to be an exception to that):




Next up we have a cavalry squadron (latin Turma), this unit is at full strength (32 figures). I deliberately based these to try and give them a sense of movement:


And finally here's a close up of the cavalry:

  1. Looking good. As you say it's the mass effect of 6mm that I think makes them look so good. Nicely done!

    Cheers

    1. Thanks Andy, the only problem with 1:1 is the vast amount of barbarians you have to paint!

      Cheers
