A few more 28mm Hellenistics

 Slowly making their way to the "done" pile of my 28mm Successor and Hellenistic project are some more pikemen, and a rather random find of what I suspect may be very old Wargames Factory Hoplites 


These are the second base of Mercenary pikemen - another great set of LBMS shields


This time I elected to do a few more of the edges in colour, rather than aimong to put metallic rims on them all 


They still have a lot of random heads though, as befits a random collection of Mediterranian mercenaries 


A LOT of different headear going on here 


And with the full set of, erm, one other base. 



The Elite Argyaspids also got a second base of pikemen



The new base doesn't have the commander and standard bearer figures on it 



These are the slightly smaller and slighter hoplites - I ended up with 24 of them pre-made but unpainted 


Shields are LBMS and some upscaled homw brew waterslide transfers using images found online 



At this stage I'd just used Darkoath Flesh as the flesh - no highlights on these - but I did add some flesh paint highlights lafter this was taken


They are all about the shields really - but honestly the Victrix figures of today are much nicer


Even a few left over to do an officer base (as I could only fit 7 on each 60mm base really)
