The sheriffs shiny helmet (part one)

[janner]

Actually, I think the sheriff's helmet is too shiny. Needs a purple wash.

 

Somebody left the lid off the superglue again

"Evil robber knights" indeed...!  True Saxon nobles and rightful defenders of the faithful, thats what we are. I think we shall have to have words with those woodsmen in due course....

Only when FMJ is not around, though, I bet!

I really like the miniatures, very well painted! I also love the gaming board and the scenery!

Thanks gents 

More to follow in a week or two 

@ JB

Is the actual table surface one of your creations?  I'm interested in how it's constructed as I want to try something different to the thick sheets of insulation foam and the lake edge does look very effective.

The table surface is just a grass sheet stuck down to a board and then the board has been edged with batten to strengthen it. I'll take a couple of closer shots of the lake if you like. That was a sheet of MDF on the bottom with the edge cut in the top board and then smoothed with filler to create the shore. 

Are they available to we mere mortals? Or are they still being developed?

They are just being used for our small campaign and there is no plan to 'publish' them. If you ask Capt Blood nicely, he might let you have a peep 

I'll be painting more figures over the weekend and I've also got some wolves to paint up (thanks Steve).

cheers

"defenders of the faithful"

So how do you square that with your original plan to rob and pillage the church? 

"  I think we shall have to have words with those woodsmen in due course "

Bring it on! I think you'll find us a little more of a challenge than those Norman Nancies you took on in the village. 

PS - got some fresh mutton going cheap, want any?

Neat and James, together, in one sentence - you've obviously not met the scruffy urchin

Looks like a great game, Jim!
And I agree with the good viking doctor. This forum is a poison to the mind. Since this morning I've been tempted with buying some modern Portugese, and maybe to invest in Force and Force and shit loads of miniatures, and then after viewing the Caps Men-At-Arms project, I'm tempted to do a game in rural France with mercanaries running around creating chaos...

[Thunderchicken]

Great stuff chaps! So we have someone shining the sheriffs helmet and a bunch of guys making a balls up of sacking a small hamlet full of cottagers? Then there's the bagging of sheep........

Excellent figures, layout and Dr D never lets us down with his pics.

More and soon please gentlemen.............. actually after reading the AAR I take the gentlemen bit back  .

Aaaaaaaaaargh!

This is what I hate about the LAF - now I want to chuck out all my other projects, start a Robin Hood thing (as I've already got the models for - no surprises there...) and read the book again.  

Paint those bloody French first! Malamute nearly developed a bicep carrying them across the North Sea for you

Yes, you still owe me for the carriage of said figures.

I had a shave yesterday you cheeky bugger 

Got a couple more building carcasses done but I'll post them when they've got a bit of timbering on them.
