28mm Punic War: Principes of 4th Legio Niger Aper (Black Boar)

 

This follows on from the Hastati I showed you in July. Here is the second line of Principes, sporting the same LBMS yellow shields but with red plumes. On the subject of LBMS transfers I wanted to say a big 'thank you' to Steve Hales for replacing some of the transfers which deteriorated due to age. It's not a common problem, I hear, but it does occasionally happen with transfer sheets that have been lurking in the back of a drawer.

Next up the Triarii. I have not yet decided the shield colour of the next Legion (2^nd Legio) but it will probably be red.
