The Goddess is gleaming in the sunlight.
She is an idol, held high by a proud warrior.
She is leading her children into battle.
She inspires them to give their very best.
The warrior who is bearing her, is the finest of her kind.
She has lived a life of faith and truth and has done many glorious deeds,
well beyond imagination of what can be expected from a mortal being.
To carry the idol into battle is the highest honour anyone can be awarded with.

The standard bearer calls her sisters to rally.
She expects no refuse and she never got some.
When she calls, every warrior obeys.
The lieutenants assemble and listen to her words.

The finest warriors become Boudicca´s lieutenants.
Her staff consists of handpicked women of the most precious skills for battle.

There is the standard bearer:
First and finest of all.
And there is the signaller,
who makes the Queen´s will clear to everybody.

There is the druid with her bodyguard.
The druid dances with bare feet and the eyes to the sky.
She is the link to the Goddess.
She knows her will.
The bodyguard will fight for her.
And she will die laughing,
knowing to have served the manifestation of the goddess already in life.

There is the spear and there is the axe.
These women are skilled elegance and brutal power.
The spear is Boudicca´s long arm.
And the axe is her unstoppable force.
One is sniping.
One is grinding.
One is as deadly as the other.
The lieutenant of the artillery and her sister from the heavy infantry.

There are the swords.
Blood shall be shed.
Death shall be dealt.
Mercy shall not be shown.
There is work to do.
Work for the blades.
(http://s6.directupload.net/images/080928/vd4vom7h.jpg)
(http://s3.directupload.net/images/080928/wbbbg4o3.jpg)
There are even more swords.
When the enemy comes near
and none show their fear
they´ll remain here.

These are only few.
There is no need for more.
Ten are enough to lead the tribes.
These are only women.
But so is the Queen.
And so is the Goddess.

I've always really liked these miniatures - cartoonish as they are.
And you've done a lovely job on the flesh.
Painting outsize tits and bums clearly brings out the best in you :D
-
lovely work, it's all good, but i'm particularly impressed with the smoothness of your skin tones,
good work fella!

Amazing painting and the story bits are very cool too.I love the Celtos line of miniatures and have boxes full that need painting.
Great work.
Do you have the Princess with shield bearers to go with these?

There you are:
BOUDICCA LED THE TRIBES AGAINST THE HATED COLONY OF COLCHESTER AND RAISED IT TO THE GROUND, SLAUGHTERING MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN ALIKE. LEGION IX MARCHED TO THEIR AID FROM THEIR WINTER QUARTERS AT NEWTON - ON -TRENT BUT WERE ALMOST DESTROYED BY THE REBEL TRIBES AFTER A BLOODY ENGAGEMENT, AND FLED FOR THEIR LIVES. THE EX SOLDIERS BARRICADED THEMSELVES IN THE UNFINISHED TEMPLE TO CLAUDIUS AND HELD OUT IN HOPE OF THE ARRIVAL OF LEGION IX......BUT TO NO AVAIL.... THEY WERE MASSACRED MAKING A FINAL STAND. THE FURY THOUGH OF THE BRITON REBELS WAS BEYOND ANYTHING THE ROMANS COULD HAVE DREAMED OF.

Under grey clouds rides the victorious one
Leading the Norfolk and the Britain tribes
To an uprising against the Roman Empire
Spurring her leadership
And her attacks!
A song for a Dark Queen whose face was stained
With dark paintings and her enemies blood
No mercy, no prisoners, sacrifice ‘em all
“I talk in the name of the Gods of war”
Blessed by the wrath the Dark Queen led
Their armies towards the battlefields
And then a new age so glorious will rise
And then we will feast the Fall of the Empire
A song for a Dark Queen whose battle was lost
Their was painted were faded with their blood
Her spirit died and was buried by time
And the hopes withered away forevermore
The fate’s stone rolls downwards and then breaks
The name Iceni is lost in the winds
For the memories are written for those who won the wars
And a restless spirit rides her chariot throughout the woods
* Lyrics by Folkearth
The Queen: Walk around:

So I was wondering how you painted your flesh so well?

I am debating whether to show this thread to my wife, as she might want to get them for her planned Celtic army :) and use them to decimate my Romans ;D

Vallejo dark flesh plus white plus white plus white plus white plus white...in 8 to 10 steps or so. You need a little time and patience, that´s all. For faces I paint the eyes first and build up the flesh around them, finally paint the lips.

These are prime examples of barbaric splendor! Love the skintones, and your work on the queen ranks among my favorite barbarian miniatures I have seen! I wouldn't have guessed that skintone recipe, I may have to try that myself.
Great work - looking forward to seeing more!
