Relic Gallic Warriors

[Prof.Witchheimer]

Like the guy on the left. Any experiences with Relic Miniatures anyone? How they are compared to Renegade?

[area23]

Isn't that the guy from Motorhead?

[white knight]

Their site says most of the figures are "true  28mm", except for a few heroic scale characters, so I'd expect them to be smaller than Renegade.

[OSHIROmodels]

They do look slighter than renegade who are on the chunky side.

more from Relic

[aecurtis]

But Renegade's Celts aren't as obviously oversized as some of their ranges.  Althogh I avoid their cricket bat "swordsmen", I mix their spearmen with A&A's, and with one generation (2d, 3d?) of Foundry Celts.  The Relic figures will indeed be a little thinner and look lankier, but I'd use them alongside Renegade's *spearmen".  Because Mike does nice swords, though, they'll look weeny next to Renegade's.

The chaps at the top have a look of the picts and Saxons done by Eastland I think

[Captain Blood]

Rather nice, and well proportioned.
I've always really liked those Eastland Dark Ages figures, and I agree Karl, these do have a similar look, although the Eastland poses are a bit more stylised than these.
I don't think I've ever actually seen anyone painting or using the Eastland figures though. Think they are a real minority interest...
If I ever get round to building a warband or two for Saga though, i might well have a go at them myself...

They are nice, the Picts especially, the saxons are as you say a little more stylised with spears/swords avoe head poses a little un-natural. They are similar to his old fantasy forge celts for celtic mythology. I think Redzed or Duff on Frothers painted some a while back, but I think with the hordes of dark age stuff out there they often get over looked or lose out ot other larger ranges

[Captain Blood]

Ah yes. Great work. Thanks Mad Doc.
How big are they relative to say Perry or Hicks typical sculpts?
Nice to paint?

(Sorry Prof, bit off topic, but since we're here...  )

Do we reckon Eastland is the same sculptor for Relic?

[Lowtardog]

The top picture certainly follow that style but are a little more weedy in build and if being ultra criticasl not quite as detailed in the facial features fomr that photo anyway, so I dont think so but may be wrong
