Now with that out of the way let normal service resume. Illness, birthdays and Christmas preparations have taken up must of the hobby time in December, but I did manage to finish my Parthian warband for Broken Legions.
I got these for my birthday in late October and they have been finished for a couple of weeks now, but only today I had the chance to set them up for a photo shoot.
The miniatures are all from Aventine Miniatures, except the slingers who are from Black Tree Designs. The quality of the Aventine miniatures are some of the best I have ever painted, full of detail and character.
Unlike some of my other Broken Legions warbands I have not gone for a unified similar look. Instead I have looked at many of the pictures from Osprey books and tried to use a similar colour palette.
This warband will be something different in Broken Legions with it's emphasis on cavalry. The Heroes in the warband are limited to the Parthian Prince, a Magus and a Lamassu. So far I only have the Parthian Prince, but will try and find a suitable mini for the Magus. A Lamassu mini I have found to be impossible to find.
Once I get these onto the table I think I will try to have a couple of Cataphracts and a couple of Horse Archers. The Parthian Prince will also be mounted, and the rest of the points will be spend on the Zhayedan Archers and the mandatory Sparabara.
