Dark Ages Project - HASTINGS 1066 - 11 March page 4
« on: January 06, 2019, 08:18:36 AM »
Back in April of last year I bought several boxes of plastics to furnish a small Dark Age Project - this has grown somewhat but I am delighted to report that the very last figure got painted last week. Just a small case of basing up 1000+ minis.

So starting with the Norman Infantry here goes - more details on the blog

a few pics..







Norman Cavalry up next

Wow - that’s a lot of minis. Well done for seeing it through. The mass of differently coloured shields is quite a sight.
