Vodnik, to display pictures first upload them to another site. (I use imgbb.com/ , as a ‘direct link’, which is free)And the format to show them here on Fanaticus is:- img style="max-width:70%;" src="---the address of your picture here---" all placed within square brackets. Make a quote of this post to see how I displayed the following picture:-  ...that is not the problen i hope. The pictures are on my HP. But the HP is in german... my homepage |

Damn, they disappeared...
Btw i've seen your ideas, thanks a lot.
I've also found the the Museum Miniature Spanish Scutarius would make a really good 1/14b Bd. The helmet look quite how i would like, the shied not, but some minor conversions would do the job. So many options ^^ |

...the idea of my paînter was that one: colors fot the cloaths werde to bee quite simple, use just natural ones. Red for examplemwas an expensive coleurr. So you have tu use red only for herоеs or commanders...

...
Sadly Piyan Glupak , i find the photos on MY Miniature very small, so i can't see anything. If you manage to send some photos, i'll be happy to compare those figs with the others. And i could also probably contact Mike if you can't.
... Sorry Ainkatsiss, I took a couple of pictures, and then discovered that I can't find a lead I need to transfer pictures from my camera to my laptop. I will continue to look. |

Could you help me to choose how to use these figurines ? :
I bought some in order to use them as celtiberian. But i think they also look like 1/14b blades could do. As i'm thinking about building both armies (i mean Celtiberian and Late Age Bronze), i wouldn't like to use the same figs inside. I have more than i need for 1/14b, so it would be more cost effective to use them as Celtiberian, but i'm not sure to find better figs to figure french late bronze warriors...
So i would be glad to have your ideas. I have a Lusitanian army on the work bench, so i have some time to decide ;-)

I'd be inclined to use the Museum Miniatures figure for the I/14b army and try to find an alternative for the Celtiberians. Have you already looked at what might be available for the latter?

Baueda does Celtiberian cavalry and infantry in the Marian Roman line.
It's an interesting line of miniatures. I bought enough to do Numidians minus the elephant. I would've done Spanish but no Iberian scutarii to contrast the Celtiberian.

menacussecundus I think i'll found a lot more celtiberian figurines than late bronze age ones. Essex and Baueda have nice celtiberian, but really different. Essex are more dynamic, when Baueda are very static, but both are beautifull.
So i think i will keep the Museum Miniature figurines for my 1/14b army. But i'm not sure which element they will represent the best. The list is composed of 4x Bd (includin a general), 6x 3/4Ax, 2x Ps. They could fit the Bd role as they are big enough to reprensent some elite units. My main problem is that the Bd should represent armored warriors. So maybe i should instead use them as 4Ax (i just have the right number), and try to find fillers for the 4Bd and 3Ax elements.
I'm still open to suggestions;-)

I'm afraid you've more or less hit the limits of my knowledge of European Bronze Age troops, Ainkatsiss. The best I can suggest is trawling round the various manufacturers' websites to see whether you can find a figure you'd feel comfortable using for the Bd. (I have no idea what the armour would look like and just how heavily or lightly armoured warriors in these armies might be.)
I know slightly more about Celtiberians. They were my first DBA army and I used Essex figures which I founded painted up very easily. That said, the Baueda ones, which weren't available then, are very nice too.

menacussecundus the late bronze elite warriors should wear a bronze cuirass, and probably a cloak for what i know. i would like the cuirass to be visible, to show the bronze colour on the army. But yes, for now i'm just try to check each figurines i can find ^^ |

I assume it should be similar to the one on the Museum Miniature figure you already have. |
