Blimey! Those look good.

But I’ll echo others: you need a mammoth. And giants! And rhinos! lol

Cheers!

Already got a giant and rhino finished. As for the mammoth, I'm hoping the War Mammoths by CMON are rereleased someday.

When I had a barbarian army, some 30 years ago, Grenadier produced affordable war rhinos and mammoths. Iirc Mirliton in italy and em4 in the uk have the old moulds. Maybe that’s what you’re looking for?

Else: sure, the ASoIaF stuff could be pretty spot on for you!

You should be very pleased, they look awesome! That banner is great, is it freehand? I have something similar in mind for some of my dwarves and barbarians, so any tips would be helpful.

I’m really looking forward to seeing more units as they’re completed!

They look brilliant.

Using a mammoth as a giant is an inspiring idea.

I have four woolly rhinos on the bench at the moment, once I find the details I will pass them on, They are already on the Oathmark cast list.

Thanks guys!!

The flag is by Flags of War. At first I was unsure what to use. I don't like painting banners and the rest of my Oathmark armies have Flags of War flags. So when I saw these wolf flags on their website, I thought they might look good and it works I think, although they might be a bit cartoony. I dirtied the flag up a  it to tone it down.

Fantastic work on that unit! I like that the models individually all have some colour on them, but the overall effect is still  muted, and I also like the mix of male and female models too (you did well there I think!). I also really like the banner - very fitting.  :D

Lovely warband but whoever owns that flowerbed they are walking through is going to be furious!

And here are the chariots! Let me know what you think. In the end, I think I should have picked horses that are actually running, but oh well
