I realised I forgot the tassels on the flags.

I'm curious, why are all the figures at the back of the base? I would have tended to base them in the middle :-\

The basing is very effective by the way

Now there's something you don't see everyday, and they look amazing!

The curiosity is killing me: why 6 across (for those not aware, Baccus 6mm are in strips of 4)?

Excellent work. Having just painted 6mm figures I know how tricky it is.
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

I prefer basing in this way to get a large area in front of the figures. By doing so, I can add elements like rocks, bush, grass ... I used 30mm x 30mm bases.

Why not ? ;)
12 figures in the base are little more impressive than 8  8)

Thanks all for your nice feedbacks.

Hecoma,

I didn't mean it as a negative, the troops look great.

I was only asking because that's a lot of work; I'm assuming you used two 'normal' four-man strips, then cut another one up into individuals and added one to the each flank of each rank?  Looks great, but too much work for me! ;)

V/R,
Jack

Thought that might be it, the scenery does look good & adds to the effectiveness of the basing
