Here are some armoured Ancient Spanish cavalry from the Victrix Miniatures plastic set Iberian Cavalry. They are great figures to paint, really detailed and easy to put together. The shield transfers are by Victrix as well. I tried to finish these for our recent Command and Colors Ancients game of the Battle of Ilipa but didn't quite get there in time.
Outstanding work, Mike! Your last photo looks like a painting. Super photo!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, I really like the Victrix figures but have so many unpainted metal ancient ranges that I don't buy them that often.
DeleteFantastic work as always!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal, they're always great to paint the Victrix figures.
DeleteThey look just wonderful Cyrus!

Thanks Christopher, they're great figures.
DeleteThose look amazing! I've seen them on their website and really like the details - your brushwork brought them to life.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, they are so detailed and easy to paint. I have some of their Gallic cavalry as well, I should get on to them soon.
DeleteWhat a great unit! Fantasic work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteWhat wonderful figures,lovely painting,I hope they do some Napoleonic cavalry soon!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain, Victrix make some great figures.They don't seem to have done any Napoleonics for a while, there is always the Perry and Warlord plastic cavalry which are excellent.
DeleteI plan to paint these as Italian (non-Roman) cavalry. The pectoral armor matches the popular style during the Punic Wars era, and I can switch heads with other Victrix kits.
ReplyDeleteThat's on of the great things about plastics, all of the kit bashing possibilities...
