Here are some Neo-Elamite infantry that I've just finished painting. The archers above are a mix of Eureka Miniatures and Warlord Games with three spare Foundry and Newline Chaldean and Neo-Babylonian archers in the back rank to make up the numbers. The mixed spearmen and archers below are all Eureka Miniatures.
Beautiful painted unit sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteVery nice work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christopher.
DeleteLovely work, the archers all seem like a coherent unit in spite of their disparate origins and the spearmen work well, I can't read Elamite without thinking of the Angus McBride illustrations of an Elamite archer getting his throat cut by an Assyrian in the Osprey Ancient armies book book from long ago, love that book , still got it and thinking about it I've still got the vignette of that in 54mm somewhere!

Thanks Iain, yes that’s an excellent book by Terence Wise Ancient Armies of the Middle East with that illustration.
DeleteCracking work, they look great, very nicely painted, hope they do a good job on the table when they get there!
ReplyDeleteThanks Donnie, hopefully refight the battle of River Ulai against my Neo-Assyrians at some stage.
DeleteGreat looking Ancients - the various makers blend in well together.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean.
DeleteCracking stuff Mick, I think I need to buy a biblical army myself!
