Since the cat is out of the bag, I may as well post my WIP photo of the new Wargames Factory Numidians here. I will post more comments and a full review when I'm done. Tonight (Wed.) is game night, so probably not til Thursday.
I'm not altogether convinced by the miniatures, however; those bows are very big, indeed! I'll look forward to the review. I'm curious as to whether they've improved the detail on the models, relative to the Romans.
I'm going by descriptions of them having what I would consider a "Mediterranean" complexion.

Admittedly, I seem to end up with lighter flesh on all figures than I probably should. Some of my Germans and Celts look like their blood's been drained. ;)
Very nice painting!

I agree, lovely brush work going on there.
ReplyDeleteReally nice work on them. Only thing is...aren't they a little white for Numidians? Or am I being thick?

I'll post a side-by-side pic later on.
Also, I am still working on figuring out the best way to do both their flesh and their hair, so I appreciate any feedback.
ReplyDeleteI think the skin tone is bang on for Numidians; a darkish Med. complexion.
