15mm Spanish Medieval Cavalry

When I placed my initial order with Khurasan Miniatures I missed the fact that the DBMM army lists allow for up to 18 elements of ordinary cavalry, so a quick order for them and a few other bits and pieces rectified the situation. I ordered 12 elements' worth in the belief that, alongside all the other troop options in the list, it is unlikely I will ever field more than that:





















Only a few pictures of these as the figures are the same as the Jinete light cavalry a few posts ago, just based in elements of three rather than two:





















They do represent another significant step forward to the completion of this army however. 











The end of July is now looking a little ambitious for the completion of this project, but I am still hoping that August is a realistic timeline for the army's first game.

    1. Thanks Jonathan. I haven't let my gaming group know what I'm up to yet just in case I don't make it. They are always keen to get a new army in action, but I really dislike using only partly completed armies and stand-in troops.

  3. More good progress Lawrence....I am sure if you aim for late August, you will manage to get the first game in on schedule ! My progress has been glacial recently...actually, there just hasn't been any...but I am hoping to rectify that this weekend!

    1. Mine was glacial last weekend thanks to a long lunch with the boys on Saturday, but I have made up for it since. Like you Keith I am hoping this weekend will be more productive.

    1. Thanks Mark. No matter how much I get done, I always feel as though I could be doing more. I am making some headway now though.
