My good mate Nick Speller has just sent me 32 beautifully painted Thureophoroi, which will enable me to expand my existing 4 units of 16, to 4 of 24 ( http://bigredbat.blogspot.com/2009/03/many-completed-thureophoroi.html )
I thought people might like to see them before they are based, as they are from 3 different manufacturers and are a useful comparison of sizes. The first four are conversions from Foundry peltasts. The rest of the first and second lines are the new(ish) Polemarch figures, and the lower two rows are Crusader miniatures. Most of the shields are Old Glory from a grognard mate in California, but a few are Essex with cast-on javelins.
These minis will be in the big Zama game standing in as Carthaginian militia, alongside a similar number of proper Carthaginian minis. I hope to base these in 3 or 4 nights, then I'll get started on Greg's Numidians.
