These are the first pictures that I will post of various 15mm and 28mm armies that I have collected over the years. I will add more armies and variations of the Byzantines as I can. Enjoy!
These are some pics that I took on my table today. The figures are a mix of Old Glory, Essex, Alain Touller, Khurasan, Gladiator, Minifigs, and Irregular Miniatures.

Many of these figure are sculpted by Alain Touller. Alain was a gifted French sculptor who sadly passed away in November of 2015. Many of the cavalry figures in this army are his sculpts and amongst my favorite figures. The Emperor Basil II stand are all Touller sculpts. I just came across a video from Tony Aguilar who managed to get a DBA army of Touller Komnenan Byzatines somehow in June of 2019. I have no idea how he did this or if anyone currently has the molds for Touller figures. I enquired about them on The Miniatures Page a few months ago, but I never got any response. If anybody knows anything about a supplier of these figures please contact me!
Awesome collection, sir!
