A second Carthaginian elephant.

On Monday I collected the second Carthaginian war elephant which Phil had painted for me. The crew of three, together with a couple of casualty figures, were already at the highlighting stage, so I knuckled down and finished them off straight away. The elephant and all the figures are from A&A Miniatures, though I've added a Roman shield from Aventine Miniatures to one figure. The shield transfers are from LBM of course and the MDF base from Warbases ~

Phil tells me the third elephant will have a yellow cloth scheme and a sun forehead decoration. I don't have any news though as to when this third one will be ready to add the crew and casualties on the base, so in the meantime it's on with some Foundry Spanish Caetrarti which I bought along with the Celtic cavalry a while back. Phil had some LBM shield transfers left over from a commission, and although not designed for the figures they fit quite well. As he's wont to say, "They will do!"
