Andalusian, Almohad/Marinid, and Hafsid garrison flags
Just completed a few more garrison flags for my several Arab and Moorish dynasties. As these are based on Christian manuscripts , their accuracy may be in some doubt, but they are too colourful to reject completely. The top two are for my Hafsids. The checkered flag and the field command flag will be used by the Almohad/Marinid army. The six pointed star flag is influenced by one used by Moors in Spain, but could also represent Jewish allies. Even when staging small war-games these large banners add a great deal to the visual impact.

Andalusian Guards for the Reconquista Wars
Have finally completed a unit of foot guards to protect my Moorish rulers and commanders. I wanted these to be in heavier armour and decided on Musketeer Miniatures. I must say they arrived with little flash and full of detail. My thanks to Luke Radford for helping me to clear much of the initial paintwork. Also included in the photos are some Gripping Beast and a few of my own converts. MGB
