Hi guys, i need some piece of advice: wanna buy Later Carthaginian army, but i have not seen Corvus Belli miniature in real yet. Are they better or prettier than Essex minis??

Right now i´m working in that army and the only bad thing that I can say about them, is that they have too many "rebabas" (lines from the forge) and some of them in faces... But they are great miniatures and a pleasure to paint them.
See you.

"rebabas" is "mould lines" in Spanoish, in case you were wondering

Mould lines are not a problem to me. I always prepare minis before painting them. As I could see on pictures form Corvus Belli web site they are ok, thanks for info guys

check also Xyston.com
Their Carthaginias are also great, BUT no cavalry nor Elephants by the moment.

for me , the only problem with xiston their minis are not actually 15 mm but 15mm heroic (17-18) and they are quite bigger.
i like very much corvus belli , due the cuality-price relation.
