Many tufts died to bring us this base...
I've given up on static grass altogether these days. It's tufts all the way for me! :)

Thanks Jan, but I don't think so really. Besides, it was your idea, so I'm definitely claiming no credit for them  ;)

The next six Saxons are prepped and undercoated!  o_o

Can't claim any credits either, I have the idea from Cornwells warlord chronicles.  :D

Amazing choice of colours! Your Saxons definitely are from one of the more colourfull tribes...

Beautiful painting. Seems like you're outdoing yourself with these, which hardly seemed possible :)
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Thanks lads  :)
Just arrived in la belle France for a week or three, so no more updates for a while I'm sad to say...
The entire warband will be finished in September though.
Hopefully  ::)

Well, the entire warband wasn't finished in September...  ::)

However, it's finally getting there now...

Here are the latest additions fresh from the LPL...







And here's the early Saxon force so far - 31 figures down, plus I have another 9 prepped.
40 should be plenty for Saga :)
(Having said that, I am sorely tempted to add the new Saxon Miniatures early Saxon set when it's released... )



Once they're finished (after the current caveman painting marathon has been completed), it'll be onto the Romano-Brit-Arthurians...

:)

Thanks Dirk.
The shields, I must confess, are mostly transfers :)

Having maintained for many a long year, that real men paint their own shields, I finally succumbed to decals for this lot - mainly because I wanted to use the excellent, intricate and beautiful LBM transfers on the mounted Arthurians...
Actually - as I think I said somewhere earlier in this thread - I find the decals damned fiddly. Some of them don't unstick from the carrier sheet and end up getting thrown away. And once you have applied them, you have to do quite a lot of overpainting and making good to blend them in.
So overall, I'm not sure they're truly worth the bother... But I guess I shall perservere with them for this collection.

But I'm sticking to hand-painted heraldry for WoTR and GoT  ;)
