Title: WFB Albion Army
Post by: Psychoflexible on 06 July 2015, 07:08:52 PM: Hello I'm Benoît from France. Long Time lurking here. Time to post my work.

So I love barbarians, GW don't sell barbarian. Good I don't want to give them my money for a new army, so I use Albion not official army book to make a Slaine style Barbarian army. Here we go (appologies for my bad english, don't forget I'm a froggy)

Title: Re: WFB Albion Army
Post by: Kamandi on 06 July 2015, 08:05:50 PM: Lots of Copplestone "Fantasy Warrior" Grenadier/Mirliton Barbarians too.

That certainly is an elegant eloquent introduction...pictures are much better than words. AND the Barbarian War Band is BEAUTIFUL: GREAT brushwork on some UBERCOOL minis. VERY WELL DONE!

I love to mix manufacturers. There is Celtos Gaël, some of the lovely Hasslefree barbarians (more to come), A Reaper one, a Sidhe from alternative army, Boris in armour by Heresy Mini and a Red Box Game OOP barbarian (more to come again). Of course a lot of copplestone "must have" barbarians with a bit of Rackham.

I love your mix of manufacturers, thats just the path I always try to follow.

cheers Thomas

I'm getting ready to paint a bunch of Copplestone/EM4 Barbarians and cavemen myself. I'm sure mine wont look anything as good as yours but thanks for the inspiration. I can look at yours and see what I want mine to look like lol

Post by: Thew1 on 06 July 2015, 11:29:08 PM: Lovely stuff. Great selection of miniatures all expertly painted. Also, your English is a lot better than my French :) looking forward to seeing more.

Post by: magokiron on 07 July 2015, 01:34:20 AM: Great barbarian selection of minis and a beautiful paint job.

Thanks for sharing.

Post by: Schrumpfkopf on 07 July 2015, 10:08:22 AM: Excellent example of what can be achieved by mixing miniatures in a single army. Obviously this works best with humans and such armies that have not much of a uniform look to them.

Thanks for sharing :--)

Post by: Psychoflexible on 24 September 2015, 09:09:53 PM: Thank for the kind words ! I'm surely not the best painter of Copplestone's barbarians but I'm a great fan of it !
