Wow. What else is there to say? I remember coming across this thread (and this website) I think sometime after Lion Rampant was published in 2014 and I had wanted to throw together some GRRM inspired figs. What a treat to come back and get to see...three years of work? Amazing. Keep up the great work! Definitely has me inspired.

Thanks  :)
Glad it's given you some food for thought!

Been a bit of a lull on this while I've been doing WW2 and Arthurians over the past few months, but I do have some more GoT plastic figures built, and will be back with it shortly!

And here we are. A little late in the day, but my final entry from the recently concluded Lead Painters League...

These are Frostgrave plastic barbarians, and very delightful figures they are too. I will certainly be making up some more.
For GoT purposes, I'm thinking of these more as Hill Tribes than out-and-out Wildlings, although they would do for either.

The barbarian giant is by Copplestone from the old Grenadier range. This sculpt is probably 25 years old, but is still widely available and fresh as a daisy. Lovely model to make and paint, with a choice of heads and weapons. He's not really Sasquatch-hairy / primitive enough to pass as a plausible GoT giant from the Free Peoples north of The Wall. But I like him anyway  :)

The guy with the shield is my favourite but they are all wonderful. I would love to get my hands on one of those giants, as it really does, as you said, look like a fund model to paint.

Thanks Kaiser. You can buy the giant from a couple of different retailers still I think. What's more he was only 7 or 8 quid I think. Pretty good value for a solid lump of lead in this day and age...

Edit: in fact, he was only a fiver from Folorn Hope Games. Outstanding value, plus a pound or so P&P and delivered within a couple of days.


Heh heh. You can't blame me for ALL your new collecting diversions Karl  :D
Late Romans and a Game of Thrones so far... Afrika Korps and Desert Rats up next?  ;)  lol
