Corps XXV - the Cabalee part.

Given up at the moment on even trying the Pisidian helmet... though already done the Milyae

These were painted up quite a while ago - conversions from PE4 using a Rose shield - I've got a number of PE4  conversions, got to use them...
The figure uses the violin shaped shield rather than the plain round one in the book - but then, the description in Herodotus wasn't exactly detailed so...

Figure should have a helmet rather than cap - easy paint job but already had them, helmets could have been painted anyway, - and carried an 'Egyptian' sword - again, already had figures painted so didn't add one. Plain colours fits the woollen tunic idea.
I'm also using these figures as the basis of Corps XXVI and XXVII. These are just described as wearing Median type garments so will simply be more highly decorated.
