| A Spartan general with a few of his closest friends looking to prove themselves to the gods |
 |
| Greek archers. Archery was not valued in Greece and archers were not used that much. I based these semi-loose so that they can play the part of both skirmishers and light infantry. |
 |
| A Syracusan tyrant with his orderlies. Not so keen to look for trouble as the Spartans. |
 |
| Greek medium cavalry. The models were really static, but I managed to spice things up by adding some command models from the Greek generals pack. |
Also, I visited London a couple of weeks back and went to British Museum. I spent a lot of time looking at Greek pottery and took some shots of hoplites and persians. I'll share a couple here:
 |
| Corinthian helmet |
 |
| Persian archer |
 |
| Greeks fighting Amazons |
 |
| War propaganda. The Persian is shown riding a mule and is pictured as being a bit simple and buffoonish. |
 |
| A scene from Illiad, I think. |
 |
| Some fanservice to those people who came to this blog using the keywords "naked greek guys". I can see what people are looking for when they Google here and aim to serve the public! |
