Thanks for the encouraging remarks folks!

When or if I ever find more time I will start filling in the back story of the army but for the foreseeable future real life work is keeping me pretty busy.

The Highland auxiliaries.



The regular warriors are made up mostly Oathmark men.  I can't remember where the command miniatures are from Claymore maybe?


The axemen are mostly Fireforge Scandanavians, a little disappointing boxset imo.






Thanks for looking.

LOL, I thought this was my blog.

I have http://oldorcsneverdie.blogspot.com/ but I haven't updated it in a while. I'm a little sick of the alphabet company and keeping an eye out for other alternatives.

Nice work. I like your grimy earthy style.
Below is a link to my blog. It's the place where I write uninteresting things about little toy soldiers. I do this because I refuse to grow up and behave like an adult.

I think its the Army Builder Quickshade that does it. Its definitely given these guys a different feel from my previous stuff.
