Those new tents look the business, Matt. Very nice.

You are turning out new houses at a phenomenal rate  :o How many figures are you up to now?

Thanks Richard.

I’ll have a count up when I get home at the end of the week ... I genuinely don’t know ... a routine precaution in case the missus interrogates me with a truth serum  :D

I really like the color scheme you have on those House Mormont guys!
Your snow basing is also really nice. Thanks for sharing.

Next batch of Karstarks WIP...a similar mix of Frostgrave Soldier/Fireforge Templar & Byzantine Spearmen bodies, mainly Fireforge weapons, but a few Oathmark/Frostgrave and Westwind metal heads, with Gripping Beast metal shields.



Cavalry next in the WIP queue

I haven’t made an accurate count of the finished/painted figures yet, but I picked up another half a dozen boxes of plastics today, which on top of my existing supplies me as I’ve probably got a years worth of sprues  ;D

Crikey! You've got an impressive assembly line going! You're making these at an incredible rate!

Looking forward to seeing them painted! The Westwind heads definitely give the "scruffy Stark" look that gets the Karstark feel across!

It’s all your bleeding fault

 lol

I hope so ...just need to finish writing the rules...I might be stretching the definition of “skirmish” though  ;)

Cheers...the discipline of thinking in terms of units of 24 is driving me on - I do want to go back and revisit some of the existing units, as some are part bow/part bill...my original plan was to combine the bow/bill troops from different retinues, but I might go back and expand them into full units if/when I get the chance.

After the Karstarks are done, I’d like to add some Hornwoods to go with the unit of northern Bowmen  (which were painted by someone else, I’ve just rebased them), plus some Umbers, more Baratheon’s, more Wildlings...Dothraki...Unsullied...and so it goes on...

Some Karstark cavalry.....Crusader mini figures (plus a single Perry) green stuff fur, Gripping Beast shields....and of course Northstar wire spears  ;)

I’ve given most of them shields attached across their backs, as if on the march





....and some more Bolton’s....less uniform than the last bunch, less kit, no helmets, spears rather than pikes. Again, Crusader minis, with Gripping Beast shields, NS spears and Westwind heads.

Looking good! how do you find the Perry HYW cavalry scales up with the Crusader ones?
