That is one sweet figure, I to will be needing him for my fantasy warriors.

Well good that you spotted that as it's what David asked Paul to do it like :)
-
Thanks guys! Paul has done us proud again. Normally I grab any glory that is going but I think it was Paul's idea to do the figure with a look of James Cosmo. Here are some up-to-date images...

Jesus, IMRIE! They look fantastic in those pictures!
And that fur trim is something else.
You are going to give us plenty of axes, yeah? ;)
-
Fantastic. Also useful for early 16th gallowglass and Scots from the Isles.
-
I want that one!
-
does anyone have any pictures of Claymore figures along side some other ranges?
-
The figures do look great, and I'll be adding some of these to my growing Scots Army.
Look forward to see the rest of the release.

Beautiful stuff David. Go to the top of the class Mr Hicks 8).
As for size, Claymore Castings are a great match for Perry Miniatures. I've got to take some pics this morning so I'll do a comparison shot for you.

A perfect Greatjon for A song of Ice and Fire, mefinks.

I'm not very well versed in the finer differences in medieval equipment, so can anyone please tell me, what makes these 'highlanders' as opposed to other medieval models? (And, yes, I know Braveheart had it completely wrong, but other than that) :)

Basically, the 'Highlanders' (and Islemen) kitted themselves out in their own tradition of arms. That being, for the rich; a long and often long sleaved gambeson, chainmail as opposed to partial plate and a big hefty axe, similar to the famous dane axe of the Norse was often but not exclusively their weapon of choice. For the poorer classes, well, basically the Lowlands of Scotland were the richest parts so the average Highlander infantryman would be equiped in a similar manner to his Lowland friends but with less bling! Likely to have poorer equipment although this was not mutually exclusive.

I quite agree, that is perhaps one of the best figures I have seen in a long time!

New from Calymore castings.
I so want them for A Song of Ice and Fire northerners.
