A break from Romans to do a few of these Jagers from http://westfaliaminiatures.com/index.html. Beautiful figures a pleasure to paint.

3rd Punic roman unit

Still not sure about these transfers,i brought them from aventine miniatures they are LBM and are only for Aventine miniatures,so why am i cutting them out? also this time you'll see i used yellow transfers and this time i did use white undercoat so i ended up having to paint in the areas that were white showing where the transfer didn't fit even when i had cut them to spot on. BTW try matching a yellow printed on transfer paper with wargame paint!!!!

2nd punic Roman Unit

Remember the last lot i did where i said i was going to paint the shields the same colour as the shield transfers? watch this space.

haven't bothered ro run thru all the colours i used as the same as for the other unit.

This is the space i told you to watch for. as you can see the white boar motif isnt actual white its clear! so it reflects the colour underneath DOH!!!!! 

putting them to one side,for a cup of tea and a think icome to the conclusion that i must take the transfers off. Not to bad to remove (thank God) take small areas of paint off but not to bad.

decide to paint red as the surface was a bit rough for transfers and hand paint this unit.

just a simple Laural leaf pattern top and bottom. Lesson learnt,now can we all move on?
