20mm Ancient Indian skirmishers


A small addition to my classical Indian army - two bases of javelin-armed skirmishers. Nice and easy to paint like the other figures from this range. Two figures to a base seems adequate for skirmishers.

I’ve no idea if their shields would have been painted like this, but I like the colours, so it works for me.


I swapped out the cast javelins for wire ones, so they should be more robust, although I may have cut them a smidge too long.

Not a lot of painting times this week or last, but I do have an Indian chariot all cleaned up and undercoated, ready to start at some point, hopefully soon, so that should be next.

  2. beautiful clean painting as ever Kev! Stunning work on the shields. Having a bit of a break this end, bit burned out!

    1. Thanks Tony. The paintbrushes haven’t seen much use of late but I think I’ll be picking them up again soon. You definitely need to take a break when the burnout happens, but I seem to burn myself out far too quickly these days!
