Iberian Caetrati



This blog has been very quiet but the work on the painting front has steadily advanced since the previous post. I'm blaming the weather, natural light has been a stranger in the North halting photography. Finally catching a good day I have some Newline Designs 20mm Ancient Spanish. These represent ancient Iberian light troops, open order skirmishers with javelins and bucklers.

These miniatures are from their Scutarii code just with a shield swap. The last 3 pictures features one miniature from Newline Caetrati code since I ran out of spare Scutarii (the rest are set aside for heavy foot). Knowing that I would be spending time on the shield patterns I elected to keep the main figure as simple as possible. Most tunics have had a base of Deneb Stone, Delvan mud wash and touched up with the base colour.

More miniatures are waiting to be photographed so hopefully there will be more posts soon.
