Another break from colonials, I wrapped up these three commanders from the 28mm Foundry Arthurian range.
First up Kay or Kai/Cai. I've envisioned him in an emerald encrusted helmet with a shield design based on the heavily stylized Uffington white horse. Yes, that's what it's meant to be! I was watching the LotR Return of the King movie just before, so there may be a Rohan influence there.
Next up Cador of Cornwall. Hes wearing imperial purple, suggesting his post-Roman ancestry, which would make him suitable as Ambrosius as well. Hes wearing a full face Late Roman cavalry helmet studded with lapis lazily, reflecting Cornwall's early dark age trading with the Middle East and Byzantium in particular.
And, of course, no post-Roman command team would be complete without the Dux Bellorum, Arthur himself. White appears to be his colour of choice, so he wears a white cloak and rides a white horse.
Thanks for looking.
