I put a post up a couple of weeks ago at the start of my 28mm Victrix Allied Italian Legion Project and I'm going to use this as a thread for the whole build.

I've laid out the project bases on the table as blanks and will fill them in as I go along. Its part of my attack at the Analogue Hobbies Winter Paint Challenge so I've got till March 21st to get them done. Can I do it ?

Wow super impressed with this project. I like the choice of going with the allied legion, they do seem abit under represented considering they comprise roughly half of roman armies.

Great painting and the shields really turned out good. I like how you got them packed up into a tight formation on your bases too. keep up the good work, i will be stalking your blog now

Many thanks Jedi, always glad to have new visitors to the blog
