Hello
Here is my latest illustration.

It represents a Sassanian Clibanarius (6th Century AD).
As allways every commentary is usefull.

Hallo JP,
very nice painting - I like it very much. Only out of curiosity: does it mean that HäT will publish a new series with Sassanian clibanarii or - referring to Your other fine paintings - Marius' mules, or Etruscan warbands?

Great work, JP! I like especially the "sinister" look of that sassanian clibanarius :wink: ! Could you perhaps make also a reconstruction of roman clibanarius/cataphract?

I remember seeing a Sassanian shield blazon like this before. Can you tell me the reference for the palm motif? I tried reseraching it a while back, but couldn't find any visual reference.

Uwe, all the images I post in RAT forum are private (not comissioned by any company). I am sorry but you will have to ask HaT about their future projects
They mantain in their website all the information regarding future sets; You can take a look also at their new forum.
Thank you for your interest

In fact I am doing an illustration featuring a 3rd century roman cataphract.
It will take some time to finnished but I will post it asap.
If you want, whenever it is finnished I can send you (via e-amail) a high resolution image of it.
Just send a private message to me about it.
Thank you for your commentaries
Best regards

Hello Andrew

This illustration was based on Rome's enemies (parthians & Sassanid Persian) by Osprey.
I made it to test some new techniques.
Thank you for your interest

Very nice! Are you just doing these as a hobby, or are they going to be published somewhere?

I have not checked this forum frequently since 2013, but I hope that these old posts have some value. I now have
a blog on books, swords, and the curious things humans do with them.

Hi Sean
Thank you for your interest.
I am a professional.
You can see more of my previous work at HaT website.
The illustrations that I posted in RAT forum are, as I mentioned above, private venture and were made to test some new techniques.
I am a self-thaught illustrator and I am allways trying to improve the quality of my work.
Best regards

Hello Stefanos
Thank you for your comments.
I wonder if you could help me?

Can you give any suggeston about it?
