All sold, and now all collected again! ;D (Except for Skragg, who has been with me for the past 25 years! :o)

So you're into entomology then Svenn? Not much else other than moths in there! ;)

LeadAsbestos -Nice work their by the way!

Right, as promised - pics of the standard bearer and drummer, plus a group shot. As its getting late I'll try and do some close-ups of the shields tomorrow and update the old blog...  :D





Not sure about the wolf howling at the moon - bit halloweeny? Tried doing a realistic red moon on its own before this design but it looked like an orange cicle with dark blobs on it!  >:(





Feedback on the banner would be good too - as Rolf would say - can you tell what it is yet?!

Tried to do a big snarling wolf face on the tattered bits left of the banner but not sure its really working...





... and the whole gang (minus champion!) together!  >:D

Are these hard to find? I think I have two or more sets on my shelf collecting dust...

Huh.

Beautiful work, to be sure. I look forward to seeing more.

Ta muchly!

Don't think they're really rare - see the troopers on ebay now and again - don't command bad prices mind.  :D

Right here's some better pics of the shield designs (after much wiggling of lights and cursing!)







Still not sure about the back design on the drum - may do a repeat of the howling wolf on the front - or naybe even the great Blues singer of the same name!  ;D
