Hi guys.

A 15mm scale Xyston Carthaginian elephant.

My first attempt at painting miniatures for five years.



During the clean up phase I added a few modifications.

Fantastic job. I especially like the pinkish-grey highlights on the elephants. You certainly did not get rusty over the years!

Mirosav05 Feb 2015 12:26 p.m. PST

You evidently remember how to paint very well!

Thank you for the kind words guys.

No Pink used, dry brushed with earth.

Given another chance, I'd probably cut off the spearmen's legs and peg them into the tower. This would have given mme more pose choice.

Stuart. :-)
