El Cid Impetus style!(Update 06.05 skirmishers added)

  Very impressive!!!

Now it's on to the infantry as I have enough cavalry completed. I will not do as many heavy infantry as heavy cavalry as the Spanish fought largely mounted, but they did play a role and so I will include some.

The unit is a Spanish spearmen with a Moorish influence like my cavalry. In keeping with the theme of the rest of the army I once again used ap with highlights and hand painted all shields and banners.

I'll be at Attriticon in early May hosting a demo with Sir Toby and his lovely Andulsians vs my El Cid force using Impetus rules. Please drop by and say hi or join in!

Thanks for viewing!

Next up some more Spanish spearmen with my game with Sir Toby.

The flag is a bit bigger on this then the other one to show it's a
command base and I added a Cantador(Bard) to inspire the men and to bolster
their spirits.

Thanks for viewing!

Wonderful, Christopher! These are really adding to your collection. There´s such plenty of colour - it is really a joy to see an army like that!

The Bard is a lovely touch  .

I finished these a few days ago, but I haven't had time to publish them. They are some Spanish skirmishers for my El Cid Impetus army. I painted them in slightly less flashy colours(mostly browns and creams) to represent their lower peasant status.

Thanks for viewing.

[Sir Tobi]

Really great, Christopher! Sad for my Andalusians that they performed as good as they look 

[Axebreaker]

Thank you gents very kind of you!

@Toby

Actually your wonderful looking Andalusians performed very well, but had a hard situation to fight from in my opinion.
