Victrix Greek Light Cavalry: Review and Spartan Kit-bash

[@smoothbrush4722]

Awesome painted cavalry, victrix has the best sculpted historical miniatures.

[@jvcpaints]

Thanks Lucian. I've got some Roman Cavalry on the go, and I've got to say I prefer the Greek ones.

[@OffGridGamer2077]

Excellent brush work James. Particularly on those equine models.

[@jvcpaints]

Thanks. Yeah the horses were great to do. I don't know why people don't like painting them.

[@zerocharisma471]

You know if you lived there, it'd be called "ass smell" station. lol. Looking forward to the rest of your Spartans buddy.

[@SquainbowSquaising]

"Nächste Station ist Aß-smell. Ausgang ist links." hehe

[@jvcpaints]

For sure it would. I'm hoping to have the Spartan video out soon...despite buying more stuff for it.

[@jvcpaints]

Das ist stimmt. lol

[@joramamodellbau3987]

Excellent paintwork on this figures and the horses, James. Very detailed. With such a result you can be satisfied.
Nice things for the table, which bring life in the game. Wish you a good weekend. Greetings, Joachim

[@jvcpaints]

Thank you vey much, Joachim. I hope to get a game in with my Spartans some time before I die or go completely blind.

Don’t know how I missed this when you published. Wow! Superb work. Yes, I love the ancient armies too! Model on James!

[@jvcpaints]

Cheers, Mark. Most of my audience is Bolt Action/WW2, but I love the old sword and shield armies from millennia ago too.

[@HamilkarBarkasScaleModelling]

Beautiful work, both on the conversion and the painting!
Nice to see some hobby shops around the world, Singapore is probably a place i will never visit!

[@jvcpaints]

Thanks very much. Michael. I only had time to go to these two shops, but I stumbled into a cardgame, gundam and funko pop hobby store too.

[@TheGamingLoft22]

Great stuff - really nice figures and well painted. Kind regards, Steve

[@jvcpaints]

Thanks, Steve. I'm glad you like them.

[@TriariusWarGaming]

Great work! Spartan conversion looks awesome.

[@jvcpaints]

Cheers, man. I'm a total Victrix convert now. lol. That said...the Republican Roman cavalry are an absolutely pain in the ass to get to sit on their horses flush. lol

[@WarGamingNewbHistorical]

Beautifully done, James!

[@jvcpaints]

Cheers, Josh.

[@MiniWarMutt]

Oh Wow! That Greek Cavalry is amazing! Yeah, the Victrix horses have stronger ankles. The WG metal horse's ankles are so thin they barely hold the weight. One of mine pretty much snapped! Ugh! Great review! Have a great weekend! Ba Ba ba ba blah blah.....blah blah. Ha Ha! Take it easy.

[@jvcpaints]

Thank you very much. I found the WG horses to be pretty weak in the ankles too. Ba ba ba ba was the most G rated out take I had. I get so tongue tied when I try to make videos.

[@maryhinge6334]

Very nice mate. Just painting up this kit myself at the moment. It’s a good kit. 👍

[@jvcpaints]

Thanks very much. I have to agree this was a great kit to do. I have some Romans on the go and they're a bit trickier it seems. Certain riders only fit on certain horses really had me baffled for a bit.

[@philRminiatures]

Superb Greek cavalry, great job!

[@jvcpaints]

Thank you very much, Phil. Hoping to get more ancients into my painting rotation.

[@BrushQuill]

Some lovely work here bud. Beautiful

[@jvcpaints]

Thanks, Cal. I'm happy with the horses, but the red in real life and in the video seem different.

[@62seano]

Cracking job James

[@jvcpaints]

Cheers, Sean.

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Really nice work james

[@jvcpaints]

[@lucioquinziocincinnato7984]

Praise from the master! Thank you very much.
