Communal Italian 15mm DBA Army

It had taken me a while to source and paint up a camp element for my 15mm Communal Italian DBA army (Book III/73) but having done that I can now post some photos.  I decided to paint the army as that of medieval Venice. The figures are mostly by Mirliton, but there are also a couple of Museum Miniatures plus a few old Corvus Belli in there too. The army has had 2 outings so far - defeating Early Crusaders, but losing to Lombards.

The full army

Knight General with the banner of St Mark, plus other Knights and Light Horse 'Berrovieri'

Religiously motivated Contadini Foot (7Hd)

The Contadini Foot supported by Crossbowmen and Archers (Psiloi)

The Spearmen from the Sestieri of Venice - Santa Croce, Cannaregio, Castello, San Polo, San Marco and Dorsoduro (shield designs are conjecture)

The Venetian Carroccio - Command Wagon - from Mirliton, with an added Museum Miniatures priest

The camp - the early Bridge of Sighs?...

Southern Sung Chinese 15mm DBA Army

Had time today to take pictures of the Southern Sung Chinese army by Essex miniatures that Andy got me for Xmas 2025 - supplemented with some lovely resin figures from Ten Kingdoms. These are the Southern Sung, DBA army III/62b, dating from between 1127 and 1279AD.  The army has had two outings so far, both times defeating Samurai armies.
