And an impressive purchase it is: Xachoti's Huaxtec Warband, from the skilled sculptings of Steve Saleh and his Lucid Eye range, which, sadly seems to have gone quiet recently.
The warband is a group of 24 miniatures - one leader and a random assortment of others in the range. The variety is quite good, with 7 different sculpts along with the leader, and a nice mix of weapons.
The castings, with the exception of one, are fairly free from flash and are well-cast. I will say that for the most part these chaps are bent over a bit, as readying a final blow to a downed opponent.
The close-ups show the detail, especially in the faces. Surprisingly, a few remind me of Celts with their upswept hair!
By comparison, they should mix well with my Eureka miniatures, although the Lucid Eye miniatures will be a bit taller - in the pic above the Eureka miniatures are mounted on washers.
I'm looking forward to getting some paint on these fellows!

I think these would mix well with Gringo 40's Maya.

I agree - on both points!
