The Byzantines have arrived.

I got my 1st batch of Byzantine cavalry from Gripping Beast a couple of weeks ago. However I was too busy to update this blog.

The first thing that struck me were the size of the minis. 28mm is so small compared to 28mm heroic. I hereby attached some pictures here for reference.





Notice how small the cataphract is compared to the dark rider.

I hereby also attached a few more solo shots of the gripping beast miniatures. Just to show the minis in detail.







Byzantine cataphract all ten of them

I have actually done up some of the horses. But I will upload the pictures next time...ok I will give a small preview below
