[@johnmccabe3836]

Another beautiful army Kevin! Absolutely stunning, well done sir!

[@philRminiatures]

SUperb army, love the efforts done on the bases...Thumbs up!

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Hey Phil thank you very much for your comments as always. I took a little bit of time off through Christmas and New Year’s. And thought well I better get a few up or I’ll lose the impetus. It is a beautiful army isn’t it

[@koganinja100]

Kevin Awesome as ever. Every time I see Early Imperial Roman armies I’m put in mind of Life Of Brian - ‘The Bloody Roman’s’ Always makes me smile ( one of my favourite movies) I have got out my ‘ Bloody 15mm Roman’s’ and started them now ( now look what you’ve done) Mine are whatever cheap I could snag from eBay mainly old minifigs strip figures. Thanks again for sharing mate All the best fro down under Lewis Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸

I am so very sorry I caused this pain. I’m about to put up my Papal Army of the Italian Wars. Grab your pocket book 😂😂 Is there any other Army I can display for you that might tickle your wallet?

[@koganinja100]

Kevin Read a book many years ago on Italian wars - if you get a chance have a look at it, was called Mercenaries and their masters. Very colourful armies and you can mix and match sides with that one too also nice mix of technology with long bows ( legion of St George) hand guns early cannons etc look forward to seeing your videos on these lads 🙂 Lewis

@@koganinja100 I’ll pick that up. I love this period for sure.

[@JohnWise-vg3zj]

Awesome, awesome collection!

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Hi John, yes, it is a very large and very beautiful collection. It was a little difficult as I had three different armies, and tried to morph them into one. I probably should sell two of these and just keep one of them. But it did turn out nice thank you for the nice words.

[@jasoncollis949]

Superb as always. You have alot of Essex figures in that army as well.

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

I think the only SX I have are the Pretorian guard, maybe the artillery pieces as well, but I think in reality that’s it

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

I actually had an Essex imperial Roman army but I sold it at his store con probably about six years ago

[@nordicmaelstrom4714]

Very nice! Maybe one day I will get around to building a Roman legion for each period. These are some nice miniatures.

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

The ones from khurasan are really nice. Maybe even from forged in battle. I think there’s some of the nicest

[@nordicmaelstrom4714]

@@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 I have a few miniatures projects id like to see about getting started later in the year and one of them is finally building my own Roman legion. Id like to have one for each period of Roman history. I was thinking of starting with the early Romans using Forged in Battle miniatures. I actually wouldn't mind painting up armies from Italy during that period. A seldom gamed era and one that intrigues me.

[@pauljeffrey1181]

Excellent army. Nothing compares to an Early Imperial Roman army.

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Nope it’s beautiful I agree.

[@tomasanderson6815]

Hmmm, tempted to try Infamy infamy with the 15 mm romans . i have to look that up as my next project and order some figures , 28 mm has its limits and i like 15 mm and 6mm wargames . Cheers

[@JMACCSArmiesOfMiddleEarth]

Wow they look absolutly incredible. What a collection

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Thank you. Yes it kinda is. Hope you enjoy the other videos. What is your period of interest?

[@JMACCSArmiesOfMiddleEarth]

@@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 Ill check them out. Very hard to choose, I'd say Im a bit of a jack of all periods. I like the variety :)

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

If I told you that, I was not a jack of all trades you’d laugh. I just started building middle earth armies yesterday. I’m excited about that.

[@JMACCSArmiesOfMiddleEarth]

@thekrausecollection15mmmin53 Hahahaha. Despite my channel name if I had to choose I'd go ww2 or napolionics I think. Awsome man what scale are you working in?

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

I do all 15mm. Started there and will end there. I didn’t paint a 10 mm war of the Spanish succession army. That was fun. I am now painting some 28 mm DND figures for my daughter who complained that I never painted her anything. So she’s right so now I’m painting some things that she will always have and look back on. I have a huge World War II collection and the napoleonic and Collection. I could probably do Waterloo at one to one.

[@andrewwilson4975]

Great army as usual Kevin!

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Thanks Andrew! It’s a nice army isn’t it?

[@tigerkiller501]

Amazing just amazing I’m in awe.

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Hi. I’m so glad you like it. I have now put up all of my Roman armies. Take a look , kick back with a cup of coffee and enjoy 😂😂🥸

[@Ronaldt1967]

For CB miniatures check out Totentanz miniatures

[@MB-oc1nw]

Your collection is huge, how do you store all of these beautiful armies?

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Well I have been fortunate to have a dedicated space Gaming room and a soldier fault. It’s about 900 sq ft I have shelves with drawers and inside are about 275,000 minis. Insanity comes to mind 😇

[@legi-gh6uf]

Great

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

Thank you very much. They are really spectacular

[@badboymax9974]

where do you get the sets from

[@thekrausecollection15mmmin53]

I think you mean, where do I buy these figures? At least I hope that’s what you mean. If not, just write me again and I’ll answer. I bought these figures from a company called Corvus belli. There are about three or four companies that carry imperial Romans. They come already made as you see you just have to glue on their shield and paint them of course. These are all made out of metal not plastic. So they’re kind of heavy.
