Sassanid Elephant and Horse Archers

 









Here are a 15mm Sassanid elephant and some horse archers that I've just finished painting. The ellie and crew are by Legio Heroica, quite large and chunky compared to the other three I painted earlier in the year, see the comparison shot below. The blanket is from the LBM 15mm Sassanid banner sheet. The horse archers are a mix of AB Figures and PSC.

  6. Nicely done sir.

    Also I've seen the reviews of the 15's from PSC and that they are the old Corvus Belli figures under license from them. The plastic figures are a steal in the boxes for what you get.

    Cheers
