Our new 28mm hard-plastic set VXA001 Athenian Armoured Hoplites 5th to 3rd Century BCE are now shipping to all our pre-order customers. Sorry for the slight delay in sending these out. The Jubilee held things up a few days, and then the company that manufactures our sets had a power outage which held up production for a few days as they were installing four new presses to cope with demand. All is well now and stocks are building up. Distributors and retailers will start receiving their shipments next week.
We are due to receive test shots of the Spartans, Thebans and Mercenaries, so as soon as we have some and stuck them together, images will go up on the site early next week. We will also get some off to our painters so you can see these splendid models in glorious color! Below are some lovely painted models of our Athenians, painted by the very talented Toby from Artmaster Studio.
And two units painted by the also very talented Matt Slade:
The shields have all been decorated using the transfers designed by Steve at Little Big Men Studios. More transfer designs are being worked on at present for the forthcoming Greek sets.
