I'm still plugging away at the Trojan War stuff. This time it is the Heroes (don't ask me to identify them, I'm a bit rusty on my Bronze-Age mythical heroes). There was a nice variety to these, they all came with tiny swords to glue into their hands but some just looked more natural holding a spear. They would have made a nice looking unit if I had based them up for Midgard but I decided that I might just as well use them as leader figures, so they landed on pennies instead of a multi-base.
the boars-tusk helmets were a bit of a pain to paint
as with all Perry Bothers sculpts the posing and proportions are excellent
if a more erudite reader can give names to these lads I will happily update this entry
I'm not sure if the greaves are cloth-covered metal,
or just canvas gaiters to protect the wearer from local thorny shrubs
either way I think they look cool
