They're all bastards Steve. I've tried to make them to look like that  ;)
(Well, all except for the Bastard of Bolton, who's been legitimised and looks like butter wouldn't melt... )

Oh they're all bastards all right, but those three are particular bastards!   lol

Don't get me started on Ramsay Bolton. He's a total can't!  In this case I'll defer to autocorrect out of politeness.

I quite like the Barbutes on those, they definitely seem menacing and Boltonesque to me.  :)

Not really fan of the mink color for the Boltons, but it's just a matter of personnal taste.
As always with you, the painting is really top and the freehands on the shields nicely done.

Good job, Captain !  :-*

Very very nice painting!! I particularly like the fur trim round the shoulders and the neck on the spear armed one. Might nick that idea

Merci beaucoup. I'm not a great fan of the colour scheme either, but it is what's described for the Boltons in the books.

Viel dank. Nick away, Tom. The figure came like that, to be fair. (I just added a bit of extra thickness to the fur trim using Green Stuff  :))

That's a good question.
I have another batch of Lannisters to paint, and then I need to do more cavalry for both sides.
Beyond that, I'm not sure.
The good thing about the Starks, Lannisters and Boltons, is that - as well as being three of the leading factions in the books - they can all fight each other, with the Boltons on either side.
I started on some Greyjoys, but because they don't really feature much in the books, apart from their forays into the North, I don't have a lot of enthusiasm for building a Greyjoy army.
I suppose I could go Tyrell or Arryn, but Tully is most likely, because I can add a few standards and characters with shileds, and then use my WOTR Yorkists as ringers, in their murrey and blue livery.

Am quite attracted by the idea of some of the minor houses, further down the line maybe...  :)

Do you not fancy doing some of Stannis' men so you can duke it out in the North?

Lovely minis as always.

Tyrells could fight both Starks and Lannisters as well.
