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.
