Lovely. They haven't deviated too much from the Saxons in terms of garments and armours but the sculptor has still managed to retain a point of difference between the two protagonists. 8)

A very good point but I have to say, the mini's with the missing helms appear to have a wee bit more character?

The rest of the pack would fit into the army as well:

I'll add it to my next order.

Check out Forged in Battle’s Arthurian range. They have a pack of monks and a character pack containing Merlin & Morgan.

Post by: Matakakea on 12 February 2025, 11:09:52 AM: Thank you Citizen. I will check these out later. My work computer reads Forged in Battle as a weapons site and therefore forbidden! Our security can be very priggish at times.
