New 15mm figures by Hornblower - Savages!

[anevilgiraffe]

Ah yes, but the Northlander warchiefs already have that option, as well as a bear rider. Needs to be something a little different, I feel.

they have 1 elk... the Irish Elk wasn't rare, they've found hundreds of them, so a cavalry unit of them would fit and be different to horses.

[Citizen Sade]

Muskox cavalry would be fitting for the ice tribes.

Regarding characters, I was going to suggest wailing women as a nod to Mark?s iconic 28mm ancient Germans for Foundry. However, as both sexes fight in your range, wailing non-combatants would be more appropriate. The idea of the wailing, apparently, was to encourage the fighters to do better in order to avoid all sorts of unpleasantness befalling the wailers.

I love them. So gritty and prehistoric. Now we need prehistoric Celts and some Fantasy-esque Romans…

[swiftnick]

Totally agree with above!!
Fantasy Romans as we were promised please.
I imagine muscular naked chaps with Red cloaks, Roman helmets and swords/shields.
Or did I just dream that?

[Maceface]

Looking forward to seeing what you do with the Savage command!

Fantasy Romans are in the works, though I imagine everyone will have a different idea of how that looks!

Currently working on bog-bodies / white walker / zombies to go against the Savages (or be summoned by them...)

Really? Those are your Romans? I think you might have seen them in '300' and they were fantasy Spartans, but still it's your fantasy so you go for it, girl!

Ice Tribe (savages), Command finished…

[Pattus Magnus]

Oh yeah! Those turned out great! I really like the colour palette you used.

[Little Odo]

They turned out very nicely indeed. I especially like the banners - simple, yet very effective.

Ice Tribe (savages), Command finished…

Looking great man! Would love.to see.more pictures if you want to post them here ;-)

[Kikuchiyo]

I've started work on rangers and undead Savages.. for those with North of the wall in mind...

Music to my ears my 10mm Dungeon project is nearly done and I was trying yo decide my next project

This news has sealed it

[Maceface]

Neolithic/early bronzeage Bog body undead have been finished, so let's hope for a release soonish.

I'm painting up my Savages though!

Here are some mixed with ice tribe...

[BeneathALeadMountain]

I really love how the savages blend into the “old range” - my only experience with the HB range so far (1 pack of shieldmaiden w/sword/axe) was that the sculpts were amazing (maybe not the horned helms so much ) but the swords seemed a tiny bit too fine (whilst they looked great) meaning a few of the pack had swords that were s-bent or squashed to a point that they were very hard to correct and leave a robust (as possible for the size) mini. I think I may have just got a duff pack that slipped through quality control. I intend to remove the damaged swords and replace with wire spears if it’s possible.

I’m really interested in the future releases as between HB and Wiglaf I finally have more of a use for the Copplestone chaps I bought to play ‘mini Conan’ with Thud & Blunder (whilst hoping the original range would get extended). I’m looking forward to the romans, maybe not the 300 type    I hope they’re more “Robert E Howard” than “Hollywood hunks”!

Thankyou for supporting the project!

The swords were a bit thin once cast up, but something I'm looking to correct on future sword packs.

[Pattus Magnus]

Oh yes, the bog undead sound excellent! I’m very much looking forward to that release!
