Hittite Spearmen











Here's another post from the archives with some Hittite spearmen. All of the spearmen figures are Miniature Designs Studios but the three command figures are by Wargames Foundry (standard bearer and horn blower) and Newline Designs (officer). The Miniature Designs Studios figures are still available on the Miniature Figurines/Matchlock Miniatures site.

  5. An easy period to paint, skin color, and white, I loved painting them in 15's way back in the day. Nice work on these Cyrus:)

    Cheers

    1. Thanks Biblicrafts, a white undercoat always makes painting bronze age figures in easier.
