These 20mm African veterans standing from Newline Designs were painted at the same time as the last post featuring the converted versions of these. These are tweaked slightly in that the spears have been cut away and replaced by bristle spears and this also allowed a small variation in the positions of the spears. The paint scheme was pretty straightforward and the shields have custom decals on with the command shields having had theirs painted over.
I've made good progress on the next batch of converted Newlines next being Africans advancing with spears but they now have various Hellenistic heads from Xyston. After that it's back to choosing the next batch to prep (Celtiberians and Italians maybe but could do with expanding Hellenistic pike blocks). I veering towards the Punic War theme as I've been making progress on a 2nd Punic war campaign setting to play out Strength & Honour battles. Other than that I can pick up one of the 28mm plastic sets that need assembled!
