a few more Apulians

Another nice phalanx of Apulians, again I have finished them off with the marvellous Little big men studios transfers. this time using a selection of Etruscans designed for Aventine miniatures and Italians designed for Grippingbeast. They all fit very well on these Crusader miniatures hoplons.
My favourite is the chap in the front row with the red cloak, who quite by accident has a matching shield and tunic. Gok wan would be impressed!

Imperator

Here he is, the Imperator ready to lead the Samnit chosen band. I have kept with the white and silvered look, then added a bit of colour with the purple. I also decided to give him a hoplon and a rather nice shield transfer from Little big men studios Etruscan range to fit Aventine miniatures.
This chap and the linen legion should really stand out on the battlefield against all the colourful units and bronze armour.
