Nice looking – I must say that cavalry is the neglected arm of my Roman army – must get out those unpainted Roman horsemen!

Great painting notably the shields

Because the Illyrian regiments were formed after this time period the light horse elements pictured here are either the mounted troops from the mixed auxiliary units or from the Legions (red shield).

That made the selection of shield patterns easier.

Very, very nice. Wrong scale of course, but you can't have everything.[grin]

Thanks for the kind comments.

@olicana,

Sixty years ago, I started with 54mm, then progressed from 30 to 25mm miniatures. The size of the figures continued to decrease as the collection broadened its range of historical coverage.

At my age, I am pleased that I can still paint Brandenburgs on coats and scallop lacing on hats for 15mm.
