Title: Old 10mm Macedonian Phalanx - looking for pictures
Post by: Szary on 02 February 2021, 12:19:01 PM
Hi! Nice to join you all here!

I currently have in progress a small scope ancient project for an Osprey Wargame Men of Bronze. I have had it on a back burner for a year or two. Still, of late I'm making plenty of progress on my Greeks and Persians and considering going for the final prize for any Ancients project - a Macedonian Successor army.

Does anyone have pictures that display poses of old Macedon Pikemen, ones with emplacements for the wire? I'm mainly interested in the "pike upright" pose, so I would like to know what poses are there in the first place.

Also, does anyone have Indian Chariot horses and new Persian chariot? I would like to recreate the Darius's chariot from the Pompei mosaic, but I would need unarmoured horses. Indian ones I saw on some blog looked great, but I am afraid how well they scale along with each other.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Sorry quality isn't great. Might be others have painted ones that better show the pose.
