Celtiberians were a group of Celtic-speaking tribes who inhabited the central and eastern regions of the Iberian Peninsula (modern-day Spain) from the 6th century BC until their assimilation into the Roman Empire in the 1st century BC. They emerged from the intermingling and cultural migrating Celtic tribes from Central Europe and mixed in with indigenous Iberian peoples.

Lovely Celtiberians Phil!
ReplyDeleteThanks Cyrus!.... umm the above photos look lousy thinking of doing re-shoot of new photos and make sure not as blurry as above photos! :o)
DeleteImpressive! Beautiful shieldwork too! Not too blurry to see your artistry.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jon, have more photos a little better will update this posting soon, thanks again!
DeleteAnother very impressive army Phil. I enjoy playing ancient Spanish, although I normally end up playing the Iberian version with all the lovely Ax(S). Horses for courses though. Great work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lawrence, I agree any army with Ax(S) are must have and are playable vs Bd,Sp,Pk and Cavalry, also Bw(S) are must have if possible in army list or point system army Bw(S) can knock out enemy cavalry during shooting...anyway...thanks again Lawrence!
Deletecheers!
Such a vast army would take me to paint several months. I don't know how you can paint so fast and so good. Congratulations! ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh.. Thank you Javier! I started painting anceint spanish figures mid November last year I usaully clean, file, prime all figures before painting 1-2 hours during the evenigs ...Thanks again!
DeleteAnother fine force Phil!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christopher!
DeleteMarvellous! Wonderful variety of shields and cloaks too.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes, James
Thanks James, painting the shields was a bit of a slog for me but as you can see, manage to complete all the figures .... cheers!
DeleteBeautiful work Phil! I also have a bunch of those Old Glory Celtiberians (though not as nicely painted as yours!) and they do great service on the battlefield.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Aaron
Thanks Aaron! Old Glory 15s infantry/foot are great to paint, but dislike and usually avoid buying/painting OG 15s cavalry! I prefer 15mm Essex Cavalry...oh...also working OG 15s Lusitanians! :o) cheers!
DeleteWow, very impressive paint job on your Celtiberians Phil, congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil! :o)
DeleteLovely looking collection sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal, yes my collecton of armies is certainly growing :o)
DeleteAll the best to you Sir! Cheers!
