The two-pack of Spanish (Celtiberian) generals from Crusader was the other big attraction of the Crusader purchase.
If finding a variety of Roman Generals can be challenging, finding Carthaginian officers other than Hannibal is even more so.
These fine fellows could command Spanish foot and horse contingents within a Punic army, or an all Spanish Army.
I gave them black cloaks like the Scutari are said to have worn.
They are very welcome additions to the command strata!
Excellent additions
ReplyDeleteThanks, I was happy with how they came out!
DeleteNice job Peter, they look beautiful and determined...
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly, Phil!
DeleteCrusader figures are always impressive
ReplyDeleteThanks; this is my first experience4 using them after picking up this lot at a Sale art Historicon 2018. I'd certainly buy them again!
DeleteNice work!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ray!
DeleteGreat looking Spanish command!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks, Iain. I have enough Spanish to make a modest good sized force of their own; they'/d be interesting opponents for the Romans, too. After all, Scipio more or less cut his teeth in Spain. I might have to use some Gallic troops as stand ins, but that wouldn't be unreasonable. Hmm!
DeleteGreat work again!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Michal!
DeleteNice work Peter, and I hadn't heard about the black cloaks for the scutarii before.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that goes all the way back to Barker, Lawrence.
DeleteVery nice. I'm doing a few ancient Iberians too.
ReplyDeleteThanks; thinking that with "a few more" figures I could make an actual Iberian Army is being dangerous to the budget adherence prospects!
