Many thanks everyone for the comments.  :D

I really enjoyed revisiting the barbarians.  Rebasing can be a bit of a pain (best avoided), but combined with painting new additions it was far more enjoyable than I had imagined. 

I even finished off a conversion started many years ago.  I had the legs of an archer and the top half of a rider from converting the Mounted Rangers (archers).  I pinned the two halves together to make an additional foot figure. That was as far as I got.



Recently I have sculpted the lower mail shirt, belt, knife & knapsack.  I'm rather pleased with the end result:

I recently attended the 7TV Fantasy Day 2022, organised by Crooked Dice and held at Foundry Miniatures.

I used some of my Barbarians as my cast, but also put together a 3'x3' table.  Most of it was previously made, but the river, waterfall and ropebridge were made specifically for the day.

I completely failed to take any photos of my own table, so here are a few borrowed from other attendees.
