I've had a bumper few days of painting Dark Ages bits and bobs. I started the week finishing off a couple of Gripping Beast Dark Age Ponies:

Then did seven Crusader Miniatures and Gripping Beast characters for my on-going El Cid project

I've painted a handful of Saxon casualties for Tony:

And finally a Sven Forkbeard also for Tony:
