Painting Challenge V - The last of the auxiliary infantry

Yet another entry into the painting challenge.  I grouped two batches together to the burden on Curt.  These are the Cohors V Gallorum, one of the many Auxiliary Cohorts in Britannia.  These guys are pretty much the same as the last two cohorts except that they have green shields instead of yellow or white.  Very creative.

These guys were quick to paint up, probably because this is the third unit of them I've done.  I converted the champion to have a spear instead of a sword but otherwise these guys are straight out of the box.

The champion.

The unit is sixteen strong, just like the other infantry cohorts in the army.  This is due to my decision to use the round skirmish bases and the War of the Ring movement trays.

I painted this model with Bronze scale mail, just to make it different.

Two of the command models are for the yellow shield auxiliaries, due to my not paying attention on the last batch and grabbing too many rank and file troops when I was finishing up the other unit.

The Vexilarius and Cornicen.

I am pleased with how the green shields came out.

The rank and file troopers.

These are the last of the infantry for my army.  I have twelve cavalry left to paint, and three command stands but those three will have to wait until after the challenge, since I already started them.  I want to add some more cohorts of legionaries to bring the II Legion up to full strength, but that can be done in dribs and drabs over the next year.
