It so happened that the virus infected all the planes used by the Russian Post .... Already my two parcels cannot reach the place of replication.
I will send them in a package the other day, but when they will be delivered I do not know ....

Wow  :o Nicely done! I'm in awe of people who can sculpt figures like this! All I can do is add beards with green stuff, and even those look kind of weird  lol

Beautifully done and nice to see some siege troops.

I'll point out the boar standard is wrong. A lot of manufacturers use this type and I suspect it's Republican Roman Army with that box thing underneath.
This is what they actually looked like:

Check out the size too, these standards were around 50cms across which is around the width of a man's shoulders.
Here is a coin of the Aedui from the Viipotal series showing a warrior with boar standard and the pole which it is attached to. Again you can see how large these standards were.

Another coin showing the standard and top of the pole:

Fantastic sculpts!
I did not even know i needed siege troops for my celts but they may be "must have"s ".

It's great when someone comes up with figures of something that is so obviously missing but no one has done before. I don't think there are non artillery siege troops for any ancient faction. There are a couple of sets of Roman engineers and testudo sets but that's about it.
Eureka does two celts with coracles, one carrying the coracle on his back and one paddling in it. It's stuff like that which brings the table to life.

So true! Even if your game doesn't call for sieges, think of the diorama possibilities!  :o

These are brilliant!!  :-* :-* :-*

I really love the fluency of movement that you've injected into these sculpts.

Do you plan to do more?

Please let us know when they are commercially available. I will buy the whole lot for certain! :)

Guy with the sword pointing up reminds me of Owen Wilson, great to see a character who's smiling instead of the usual screaming face.

Great work on those, be a must for a escalade!


On the standard note this one is from my local tribe, the Aulerci Diablintes

As we have now these magnificent besiegers, we need then :

* Casualties (from the two opponents, so Celts and....)

* Slaughting party (when the besiegers enters the city).

* Looting party (when the city is fallen).

* Surrenders party.

* Victorious / celebrating Celts.

I need to understand what city it is.
A small fort of the Romans or a large metropolis.

They wouldn't require much difference if any.
I think what is being referred is similar to Wargames Foundry Franks/Saxon Raiding party:

(https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1505/0474/products/FS008_1024x1024.png?v=1497450335)

The victims are civilians in that set but could easily be Romans, other Celts etc or the roles reversed.

Other examples from Foundry:

As cadbren says,  they can be civilians or military.
Once the defenders are eliminited or routed, the civilians are the next for a slaughter.  ;)
