A second unit of Hanibal's Veterans

 As it says, a second unit of Hanibal's Veterans again from Aventine Miniatures with the exception of a Crusader Miniatures Hanibal masquerading as an officer and a second officer figure from A&A, all have shield transfers from LBM where appropriate and bases are from Warbases as ever! Not much more to say about them really, so best just post some pictures ~


There's a third unit of Veterans in the painting queue, again from Aventine Miniatures, but made up from a mix of Imitation legionaries figures in mail and linothorax. Next in the painting queue now though are a unit of Spanish Scutari using Crusader Miniatures figures.

  6. Great looking unit David. And who better to lead Hannibal's Veterans than the great man himself. Think of it as a surprise inspection by the boss.

    1. I am on the downward slope now for the Carthaginian army it's true. Still 60 odd Allied legionaries and cavalry too for the Republican Romans though.

    1. Thank you for your continued support Aly. I wouldn't even attempt shields nowadays, transfers are hard enough!
