Ninefingers Age of Arthur (10/08 Goths/Pict)

[Ragnar]

Lovely work!

[Ninefingers]

I've been working on other things, I have 24 Saxon warriors finished but need to finish the same amount again so that I can base them all up together. I have managed to get this Pict Chariot from Wargames Foundry finished though.

[macsen wledig]

nice work!

[Ninefingers]

I've broken the back of the Early Saxons, with five units of warriors (Duguth?) completed. I really see these as pre-shieldwall, hence the mix of small and large shields.

The figures are a mix of Gripping Beast, Footsore, and Casting Room Miniatures, which gives a good mix of styles and heights! Cornwell-approved wardogs are plastic Wargames Atlantic from their Irish set.

[Dean]

Great stuff, that mix does indeed make a great looking unit

[macsen wledig]

great work sirrah!

[Ninefingers]

Moving on to some more Picts before I paint the Saxon horsemen.

This is the Gripping Beast Pict Chariot, he likes to get a-head... along with the previously painted Wargames Foundry one. There is also a Gripping Beast Pict Warlord who will serve as a champion of some sort.

[Basementboy]

Wonderful stuff! Love that champion on foot, he certainly looks eager

[Ninefingers]

More Picts. Two units of warriors and a unit of crossbows. These are Gripping Beast plastics and a few metals.
Plus a group shot of the whole raiding force so far.

[Ninefingers]

One final unit of Romano-British infantry (Gripping Beast) and two units of Saxon cavalry (Gripping Beast and Footsore).

So ends a project that's taken about a year to complete, so I'll finish up with pictures of the three (perhaps) completed armies, Early Saxon, Romano-British, and Picts.

[Basementboy]

Love it. Any plans for more from the period or are you calling it done here? (And cracking work either way)

I'll probably expand the Picts at some point. I've also got some painted plastic Gripping Beast Late Romans that are individually based. I should probably re-base those onto single MDF bases. That'll add a unit of cavalry, two infantry units, and two archer units to the Romano-British.

[Basementboy]

I look forward to seeing it!

[Marine0846]

Little late to the party. (Nothing new for me.)
Lovely figures.
What a treat to see.

[Wilgut Spleens]

They are lovely, fantastic choice of colours
