This unit was a bag of bare castings yesterday lunchtime.
I had already painted a unit of archers, and called them Cohors I Damascenorum Sagittariorum (The First Cohort of Damascan Archers), but then realised that I'd missed a trick or two... Firstly, I'd forgotten that they'd likely be arabic in appearance, and so needed darker flesh and secondly, that it is 'traditional' amongst wargamers for 'Eastern' Auxiliary archers to be dressed in green (for no good reason beyond (I believe) an illustration by Ronald Embleton - not that that is necessarily any worse a reason than many we use to choose the colours we use!).
So I decided to rename the other unit (to Cohors I Ulpia c.R. Sagittariorum - Trajan's Own First Cohort of Archers, Roman Citizens) and paint another unit as Cohors I Damascenorum Sagittariorum. And the above is the result. I decided that all green might be a bit much, so I went for white tunics with green trim. Shield transfers are of my own manufacture.
Tomorrow I'm going to start on 8 cavalry figures to change a unit of auxilia into a cohors equitata (mixed cohort), and rename it.
