So this last week has been really disappointing in terms of free time that I could put towards painting for the challenge, with real life again throwing up unexpected obsticles to resolve! Who said being retired was easy, with nothing else to do except your hobbies, everyone seems to believe that you're the guy who can do everything at the drop of the hat! 😀
That said I have concentrated on trying to break the back of my 15mm Carthaginian army, with Light Infantry and Horse all lurching towards completion.
The bulk of this week's submission is focused on the Carthaginian's allied Numidian and Celtic forces, with the foot all being depicted as Light Infantry. I have noticed that Warlord Games do a close formation Celtic frame, so I'll be looking to acquire one of these in the near future - plus some elephants of course!
Anyway on to this week's figures, first the Numidians:
 |
| The Numidian contingent, Horse, Javelin men and Archers. |
 |
| A close-up on the horse, 2 bases each of 5 men, all armed with Javelins and their distinctive hand painted cow hide shields |
 |
| Another shot of the mounted men, sorry having trouble getting a clear shot of these small guys |
 |
| The Javelin men, again two bases each of five figures. |
 |
| Two bases of Archers, again two bases each of five figures. |
 |
| And with the rear rank brought to the front |
 |
| A better shot of the Javelinmen |
Now the Celts:
 |
| The Celt contingent, 2 bases of cavalry and two bases of skirmishers |
 |
| Close-up on the Javelin armed skirmishers, shields are again hand painted |
 |
| Another view of the Javelin men. |
 |
| Celtic Cavalry, javelin and sword armed with a mix of armoured and unarmoured figures |
 |
| Another view of the Celtic horse. |
And finally the others!
 |
| Two bases of Lybian Skirmishers armed with spear and shield |
 |
| Rear rank brought forwards |
 |
| Two bases of Iberian slingers |
 |
| And the rear rank of the slingers brought forwards |
Hopefully next week back to 28mm Arthurians - although I do have some 20 or so more Carthaginian Horse to get completed!
