Here come the Spartans.

My thanks to MisterC for letting me post some of my figures on his blog as we both work on a KOWH project. Here we have the first phalanx of Spartans, just need their base texturing and painting. Alongside we have a musician and Argilus, the Spartan Hero who will lead them. All 15mm War and Empire figures.

  2. The shield designs are especially nice. Weren't you tempted to go for the plain lamda?

  3. According to what I have been reading, the plain Lamda was adopted later by all the Spartans. When scrapping against the Persians it was used but so were a hoplites own choice of shield decoration. However, when I paint my Kings Bodyguard unit, they will all have the Lamda device on their shields to make them stand out as the elite.
