Carthaginian armor and impression

[joeandmich]

Does anyone have any information on Cathaginian armor or impressions?

Thanks

[Gaius Julius Caesar]

There are a few in the enemies and allies sections, IIRC

I haven't had any luck finding any pictures. Can anyone help?

Thanks

Have you considered this Osprey book?

Carthaginian Warrior 264-146 BC

If not I highly recommend it.

Good looking crew!
Are those helmets copper alloy, or resin?

[Caturix]

Copper. Never used resin...

Now we are working on Linothorakes directly inspired on the carthaginian relif of Chentouf.

As soon as we'll have the first prototype ready, I'll post it ;-)

[Gaius Julius Caesar]

Indeed! Great looking group. Now we are ready to do Cannae! (I wil lhave to be one of the survivors, of course!) heh :mrgreen:

[Dan Howard]

Cool photos. There are some scary-looking knees there. :mrgreen:

[Caturix]

Here some pictures of our first carthaginian event of the season.

[Caturix]

After a really looooooooooooong work, here a Hannibal's veteran impression, with a Linothorax constructed just with 11 layers of raw linen and 1 layer of fine linen, glued together with rabbit glue.
The last layer, the one in fine linen, was also painted (and waterproofed) with chalk powder.
