Hello, after painting an army of Guanches from Canary Islands for DBA, I've just finished two more of Spanish Conquistadors.
The Castilian army list of the Canary Islands conquest is unofficial and made by me and a friend:
1 x General, the royal apointee and his small mounted retinue (3Kn), 2 x some gentlemen adventurers (4Bd), 4 x Castilian infantry from urban militias (Sp), 2 x urban militas (Sp) or native allies (Gomerans used in Gran Canaria and Grancanarians in Tenerife) (5Hd), 1 x Jinetes (LH) or native allies (Hd), 2 x Crossbowmen (Ps). Terrain type: Litoral. Aggression:4. Enemies: I/65.

After this army, I made the one from Hernán Cortés with Texcalans, list IV/19c.
1x 3Kn Gn, 1x4Bd, 1 Cbw and 1 Art from the Spaniards, and 4x3Bw, 1x4Bw, 2x3Bd and 1Ps from the Texcalans.

All the miniatures are 3D printed STL from Red Copper.

BTW, if you are interested in DBA, then you maybe interested in our new Youtube channel with video battle reports. It's in Spanish but everybody is welcomed, there are subtitles, and we'd appreciate your support subscribing to it:

Beautiful job of painting those figures! The camp is rather impressive, too.
