Wonderful stuff Richard. Your poses look so dynamic and natural.

I like that Boltons don't use shields because their livery is a pain in the arse!   lol

Ditto on these versions of GoT over the CMON game. The CMON stuff looks far too high fantasy with the long almost 'elvish' faces on so many of the characters and the unrealistic armor on figures like Tywin.

So I am at about 12 boxes I would need to buy, but with enough to build at least 3 or 4 saga forces.

They all look awesome! I really like that Stark knight in the middle he looks like a true tough as nails Northerner. Those Tullys are exactly what I was thinking of doing for mine eventually, very inspirational stuff as usual :)

I always love seeing what others are doing kit-bashing plastic figures.  Your guys are brilliant.

VERY WELL DONE, Cap'n! You do some of THE MOST BEAUTIFUL conversions. Your work with the brush & eye for color are OUTSTANDING. I am sure if I knew anything about The Game of Thrones I would be a more avid follower.

Your builds have such a sense of movement, nothing static about them.

Thanks gents (especially Al, who kindly contributed to this project via the donation of a few hairy heads a while back! :))

I seem to have rediscovered my kitbashing addiction. I can't seem to stop building! (Mainly I suspect, as often remarked before, because it's a great deal easier making them up than painting them!)

Anyway, here are the rest of the Tullys... As usual, a mishmash between Perry WOTR/HYW parts, supplemented with Fireforge components plus a bit of Green Stuff.

The unfortunate Ser Edmure Tully and a couple of serious looking lads... Ser Edmure is supposed to look callow and a bit useless, per the books.





And three more Tully heavy infantry...
As you can see, I've foregone the notion of the friendly, open-faced Tullys... Decided to make them look a bit more businesslike. Mainly because some of my Yorkist knights will be doubling as Tullys, and they have a fairly brutalist, visored  look, so these new additions need to fit.
I am sticking with the big pavise theme though...
I'm looking forward to painting these.
I'll use the Tully livery described in the books: red and blue vertical stripes with the leaping salmon sigil - quite different from the parti-coloured version invented by HBO with its wavy white lines.

Sir edmure looks a little bit like Donny osmond. lol
Brilliant figures nonetheless. those tullys look great.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.
