Looks great! Great job with the feet blending into the picture. Appears to be a diorama, which is a complement. Keep giving us this great history lesson. Mike

I really like this particular set. Do you think you'll go for one of the German sets with the Zebra eventually? I'm surprised more of our "glossy" colleagues here on the forum aren't collecting these excellent figures. I'm looking forward to seeing more of these guys in future posts.

I agree. I would add 2 more marching legionnaires to it, since Ana will sell singles.
