Gwŷr y Gogledd
« on: 01 April 2016, 03:10:15 PM »
Just made a blog posting about my Gwŷr y Gogledd for Dux Britanniarum. Probably my favourite wargaming force.  If I had to choose just one to keep from all I own,  this would be it.

Not particularly well painted by LAF standards, but I love them.

Very pretty!

I recently bought Dux Brit and have been gradually building up my forces. It's been slow going, but hopefully I'll have enough for a game by summertime.

They look great!

I bet they really pop out on a battlefield!

Better than what I can do.  That black/gray blend on the standard is wonderful.  Was the dragon a transfer/decal, or hand-painted?

Graphic created in Corel Draw, printed on a colour laser then shaded with acrylic paint.  The dragon came from clipart of the Welsh flag.
