The Frostgrave plastics are great fun to convert and build.

Whether they will ever get used is another matter.

Second barbarian.


They are inspired by the Wildings of Game of Thrones.

Barbarian Elementalist


The staff is plastic rod decorated with bits from the Cultist sprue with some teeth from a Barbarian axe.

Thanks.

When I originally bought the rulebook (from the Ainsty stand at Warfare 2015) I also bought some of Ainsty's treasure piles.







Now I need to finish some of the figures.

Re: UVS Frostgrave - Messing about with boats...

Or just a boat.

I have not yet bought the new plastic crew (though I have been looking at and building some of the Shield Maidens, plus admiring the Gripping Beast Arabs).

What I have done is dig out an Ainsty boat I bought a long time ago,


Now who will be crewing it?

UVS Frostgrave - Celtic connection

A sailor with hand weapon.

Warlord Games Celt.

The joy of Frostgrave is the ability to use all manner of stuff from the spares box.

Re: UVS Frostgrave - Arabic connection

So I finally bought a box of Gripping Beast Arab Spearmen and Archers.

The box contains eight identical sprues.

Two of the bodies can be archers or spear men, there is also a sword arm and a trumpet.

Two Spearmen.


Two archers.


A swordsman and a Frostgrave Sailor.


Group shot.

As you can see they are of a similar style to the Frostgrave figures. Not sure if you could swap arms between the two but the figures work well together.
