Styriwar Crossbowmen: miniatures rescaled to 15 mm for a medieval sicilian army

In this video I start a new project: a Sicilian feudal army for which I will use figures from Styriwar and Red Copper Miniatures, plus another surprise that I received from my gaming partner Lluís Vilalta who gave me some Almogàvers figures that he himself had painted. Wow!

I want the army to play L'Art de la Guerre with 15 mm figures... But Styriwar's STLs are 28 mm so I've rescaled them to be 15 mm. They are from a Kickstarter campaign called "Divide et Impera" and are 12th Century figures. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...

The STLs from Red Copper Miniatures are from an Arab army “Arab Conquest (622-750)” whose figures are both 28mm and 15mm so I had no problem printing them in 15 mm scale. https://redcopperminiaturess.gumroad....

Finally, Lluís's lead figures are Almogàvers of different provenances, predominantly Alain Touller, a now defunct sculptor, so they also have the value of being very hard to find relics, and which will allow me to move my army to the Sicilian 14th Century. More details in Lluís's Blog: https://soldadets.blogspot.com/2009/0...

Although it may seem strange such a different mix of figures, it is not so much if you take into account that it can be easily expanded as the core of two different armies: a Crusader of Richard the Lionheart, and an Arab of the first expansion of Islam, and even other armies overlooking a little bit the anachronisms.
