A friend of mine asked me for a figurine for an Armorama contest. I have 40-50 1:32 figures and no time to paint them. So it was an opportunity to have one of them paint.

Please feel free to show me what he did wrong:

He already knows that the tail of the goat on the shield should be panted like the goat. He thought it was a flower. :lol:

OK, this is coming from a completely unexperienced painter and amateur roman enthusiast, but is the pole for the Vexillum also supposed to be painted red (Insert question mark here - sorry, keyboard is not configured).
