Jeweled thrones & sandaled feet

Later Sargonid Assyrian 680 BC to 609 BC. Like the Babylonians I've chosen this (TRIUMPH!) list as a base but over time the intention is to expand it to cover the earlier list and to be able to, maybe, field a double sized army. That's why, for anyone familiar with the lists in question, I'm always painting more stands than I strictly need. The figures are almost all Essex, some Museum accompanying the General in his chariot and the camp stand, also some Gladiator and Lurkio make up the alternate Horse Bow elements. I've stop/started the Assyrians for years, so some of these figures are quite old and have needed a going over of shading and highlighting to bring them closer to my current standard. Between the Babylonian and Assyrian armies I had only two chariots, so the old chariots and crews have been split between the two and modified quite a bit to squish them onto (mostly) a 40 x 40 stand. Utilizing the original colour schemes they have now evolved into Red chariots

Later Neo-Babylonian 669 BC to 605 BC.  This is the main list I've chosen from the Washington Grand Company ruleset TRIUMPH! to organize my Babylonians around, though I expect with a bit of fudging and additional units they could be used for other Babylonian lists or even to expand my Assyrian army as required. The figures are mostly Essex, with a few Museum and Chariot miniatures mixed in. The chariots and Qurbuti horsemen are old figures I've attempted to tart up with a lick of paint and rebasing as a nucleus for the rest of the army to form around. Chariots 4-horse chariots with three crew (including General). Javelin Cavalry Qurbuti horsemen. Bad Horse Qurbuti, Chaldean, Aramaean, or militia horsemen. Spear Qurbuti infantry. Bow Levy Bowmen. At the moment I don't have a dedicated camp for this army so for the time being I'll be using a rather nice bit of scratch building work I got off  eBay that gives the "Great Man" an excellent view of the proceedings
