I can't for the life of me remember who I bought this from. I thought Fenris Games but it is not in their collection. Maybe OOP? It comes with a base, but I left that off for a smaller one of 2 MDF bases stacked, sanded and gritted. A quick paintjob and some Tufts.

Meant for Silver Bayonet, but works for many things, Pulp included. Makes a great Plot Point, and will look great in my graveyard.

That came up very nice!

If you figure out where you got it from, do update. Can't find it on Fenris' website either, but they do have another really tall Celtic cross...

Very nice. The bloody hand print is a great touch.

I've checked some more online, Ainsty was one I used to buy a lot for my graveyard from back then as well, but also no luck.

Fortunately, you can get them from lot's of places these days, including 3D printed.

Thats lovely! I have the same one, bought it from a dealer at Fall In a couple of years ago.... Trying to remember who

Ok, I could be wrong, I often am, but It looks like the one from Ainsty Castings without the base. Still available from Recreational Conflicts online

I guess so? I did indeed leave off the base, and I assume RC picked up the moulds then? I did grab it from the box that has the Ainsty Mausoleum and some of their graves, so it would make sense.

I love those Celtic crosses. Nicely done.

Pretty sure your cross the the "Celtic Cross Standing" here: https://www.recreationalconflict.lusagi.com/ainsty/fantasyligne.html

For a more widely available small Celtic cross, there's quite a nice one in the Renedra graveyard plastic sprue. https://www.renedra.co.uk/product/gravestones-ravens/

I painted the Renendra one up a few years ago: http://www.warbard.ca/2019/04/28/a-graveyard-much-delayed/

Thx Wire,

I had bookmarked your Blogpost ages ago, in my Inspiration folder. I should have (more than one) of those sprues around here, I'll give them a go too.

Ah, so it was the Ainsty one. The one you painted also seems to be a much better cast than mine. I'll use the base for something else, maybe a sacrifice or a different icon.

Nicely painted but the cross itself gets the celtic knot work completely wrong. George Bain would be quite upset. if we can get pedantic about lace shape and button colours, why do we so often excuse bad celtic knot work?
