17th Century Halberds & Pikes



 
These Spanish Halberds are some of my first pieces I painted circa 1973. The simple/low detail figure design was common at that time.

They and the pikemen are lead pieces that might be Scrubby's but I'm not sure.
In those days in San Luis Obispo the miniatures available were really limited.
    These are roughly 25mm scale painted with my Testors oil base plastic model kit paints.
Originally, I was going for a build a full are of Spanish and Italians, but due to cost constraints ( I was a poor college student back then)I shifted to N gauge African Colonial and Napoleonic shortly after I painted these.
