Armies and Enemies of Ancient Rome-Romans and Hannibal's Army in Italy

 Most of my war game armies are in 20-22mm (1\72-1\76) with many being in plastic. At some point, I discovered Newline miniatures and set about replacing some plastics with Newline-in this case Hannibal's Army in Italy.

My ancient armies are based to be versatile. I play games with Command and Colors Ancients, my version of DBA and in the not-to-distant future a set called Triumph

I was looking over the Triumph lists and brought my collection out. I decided to take some portraits with my iPad. Here are the results.
