Carthaginian Heavy Spear

Carthaginian Heavy Spear 1

Some actual Carthaginians for my Cathaginian army! These have been a bit tedious: 48 miniatures all exactly the same. I didn’t do any fancy shields as the surface has significant curvature and I’m not comfortable enough in my free-hand on such a tricky surface. To get these done quickly I mass-painted them on sticks (you … Read more

Spanish Scutarii

Spanish Scutarii 16

More non-Carthaginians for my Carthagenian ADLG army. I’m keeping to mainly reds for this army, but I’ve used a slightly different red to most of the others (a slightly deeper red).

I’ve painted them with different coloured, matching capes to … Read more

Numidian Light Cavalry

Numidian Light Cavalry 26

A quick update with some more 15mm Ancients miniatures. This time it’s some Numidian Light Cavalry. I’ve reused the colours from the Numidian Light Infantry (the riders) and the Iberian Cavalry (the horses). I’m planning on doing another 2 bases of these as that maxes out the Carthaginian list and I think I’d like to … Read more

Iberian Cavalry

Iberian Cavalry 35

These figures are a continuation of my Carthaginian forces. This time it is 5 and one third bases of Medium (or maybe Heavy) Iberian Cavalry. Another group of miniatures I’m very happy with. I find 15mm very time consuming, but also very rewarding when they’re done. I think they look pretty good, especially the shields … Read more
