I really like your mandrelys and lockes.

Your dornish are great but I wouldn't be able to pass up doing the tunics in the house colours.

Very nice, I'm soon gonna be starting a similar project for Westeros just using the Perry plastics, so this is nice to see.

Are the bases you are using the ones that come with the Perry boxes, the green 20x20 ones? I'm debating myself whether to use them or Games Workshop bases.

Also, where are your Manderly bodies with scale armour from?

Thanks for the comments.

On the House Manderly soldiers, scale armour is from the Fireforge Sergeant sprue.

The bases are Mantic Games.

To lead the northmen, a White Harbour Knight in polished steel plate.

Lots of interesting less-represented (on here in miniature) houses here, good stuff!

"Even with the losses I have suffered, I still command more heavy horse than any other lord north of the Neck. My walls are strong, and my vaults are full of silver. Oldcastle and Widow's Watch will take their lead from me. My bannermen include a dozen petty lords and a hundred landed knights" Wyman Manderly (A Dance With Dragons)

I like the scaly theme of the Manderlys in general; they look like the wealthy half southern culture they seem to be in the books.

Thanks Elgis, I was going for a fish scales armour look. Something different from the War of the Roses armour on the Southern houses but still wealthy and well equipped.

I recently painted these Northmen light cavalry / outriders . I always imagined that the northern armies used a higher proportion of lighter cavalry what with the difficult terrain, long distances and really cold weather. Certainly the horses of the Southron knights suffer badly during Stannis Baratheon's march on Winterfell.

I also painted these Mantic Zombies as Wights.

"Wights are monstrous, unnatural creatures. Abominations before the eyes of the gods." Samwell Tarley, A Dance With Dragons

Nice horsemen and wights!

I agree to an extent- but more in the sense that southern cavalry would be more late 14th/ 15th men at arms for the most part, with northern cavalry being a bit lighter and with more light cavalry, but still somewhat heavy- after all, they do win some of the early battles with shock so they can't be that light to my mind.

That said, I think there is a part where Robb asks how many knights there are in the Northern army, only to be told that there is no real difference between his knights and other noble cavalry- more of a 'southern mindset/ ideal of honour' type comment than anything, but still....

Nicely done! Great metals and heraldry. I always liked Wyman Manderly.
