DBA 2.2 Siracusans II/9 army.

The miniatures are from the range March to Hell from 3D Breed, and I quite like them because they are biffy, sharp, detailed and easy to paint. I have painted them with diluted paints but I feel they would be easier to paint with contrasts given the detail in them. 

There two minor complains about them though: they come without bases so glueing horses' narrow hooves to a base in quite tricky in 15mm; and also some figures are not too historic, but overall they are great as you can see below.

Siracusan II/9:  1x3Cv o 4Sp (Gen), 6x4Sp, 1x4Sp o 3Wb, 1x4Ax o 3Cv, 1x3/4Ax o Art, 1x2LH, 1x2Ps.

Eight Hoplite (Spear) bases in total, including general on foot (first on the left).

Slingers (Psilois), Peltasts (4Auxilia) and ballista (Art). The Artillery comes from a Roman army and the crew are Peltasts without javelins.

Two cavaly with general on white horse in the middle (he is wearing full hoplite gear) and one light horse.


Camp (Litoral) from Thingiverse. I am quite happy with how it turned out.

This army is for a campaign in the Mediterranean against my Polybian Roman and Gauls plus a Numidian army that I started painting today. Other friends from the group are building more Greeks, Persians, Macedonians and Carthaginians.
