Work has begun on getting the Norse faction together.
I am mostly using existing figures from my collection for the Norse Mortals, making small alterations and repainting bits here and there where necessary to tie them all together and then rebasing them.

I am actually working on all of the Mortals at the same time, along with the first two Legends, and will be posting them as they are finished.

First up to pose for the camera is a small unit of Dvergar (Norse Dwarves) who will be acting as the Housecarls to their Smith Lord....



These were painted by  The Lockswin and I grabbed the chance to get hold of them when they were offered.
He has done a cracking job, I did very little other than rebasing them onto 'snow' bases.
(Yep, snow, not 'white or unpainted!  ;D).

Next up is their 'Smith'....

The Mordheim/Krappefortt refugees.
Formerly a band of Kislevites for Mordheim, they then moved on to Frostgrave (hence these fellas already had snowy bases), but have now ventured to the realm of Mythology where, hopefully, they will see more action.
Seeing as how they only saw one game each in their previous incarnations, that may not be too difficult.
Anyway, back to the current situation....

This is the first unit of human Mortals for the Norse and can be used as Berserkers, Warriors or Nobles, depending on what is needed.
As all of the human Mortal unit have their own distinct character this will not be an issue.





Consisting mainly of long OOP Citadel figures, these boys are full of character and I am glad that they have found a new place to cause mischief.






As these chaps were the first Norse unit finished they have kind of set the tone for the rest of the force, so I will probably be repainting aspects of the other units to include more red as a feature colour.




A unit of Daneaxe wielding lunatics shall be next up, I reckon.....

Santas? You have an army of Santas?
Must be that British humour.

The red shield and pattern looks tricked Paul, nice stuff.

Thanks, Jeff.
 :)

Next up are another human Mortal unit, which again could be any of the human types but I think that I will lean towards Nobles, although they could easily be Berserkers as they carry mahoosive axes!




They were originally painted by Majorsmith and LeadAsbestos. They have had minor changes made to them and rebasing to match the rest of the Norse faction, of course. I may go back and add the odd red detail to tie them into the other predominantly red units, but am undecided on that at the moment.

Some closer shots of the menacing looking bunch...

Very nice - love the palette used, and the snow and snowy grass look the works.
