In the Ancients painting club I posted two pics of the 15mm elephants from my growing carthaginian army. Since I had the chance to play with them at the last weekend I decided to paint some more minis, a unit of spanish cavalry and my camp element:

Nice work. I like the camp, nice tones with the right amount of bright colours to set it off.

Very good looking work so far!

Cheers,

Nice work there and a good job on the freehand shields.
I also like the Corvus Belli figures, IMO the best 15mm Carthaginians around.

Thanks guys!

I think I didn't post pics of the rest of the army before (except the elephants) so here's an older groupshot of the whole bunch Ipainted till now!

The camp and cavalry are missing, as are two bases of heavy infantry (roman style) that I painted after the photo!

Yes!

I have some wip shots!

But the scutarii arent as detailed as these are.

Just amazing work on those shields.

All kinds of awesome!

I think hand painted shields are much better than transfers and yours are superb, definitely something to aspire to

Very nicely done.

Excellent painting! These freehands simply look awesome.

It's a truly beautiful army, Ben, well done!

Beautiful painting!

Thanks a lot!

I will have to add another minimum of 8 bases of gauls, 4 bases numidian light horse and another 8 bases of heavy cavalry (gauls and celtiberians) plus another two elephants... so there's still a lot to do! (Some not-shocktroop medium infantry would also be good...)

But as I really like the feeling of big battles FoG gives, I think they will come sooner or later!
