My first Saga Army: Vikings

It took me 3 weeks but today, I finished them,  they still need some detailing here and there, but I deem them table ready.

For my second Saga warband, I would like to do an Irish force, any suggestions for miniatures?, I am leaning towards Foundry.  I like the use of wardogs, I play Brink of Battle, by Bob Faust, and one of my favorite inclusions in my force lists is "Dogs of War", which lets you have wardogs, or whatever type of creatures you want to add to a "Handler".

THREE WEEKS?!  :o

It takes me that long to do a single unit... o_o

Lovely work, I'm sure you'll get a lot of use from them - thanks for sharing!

Hello all

Check Crusader miniatures and West Wind production.
They also have irish warriors.

Cheers

Sounds like you were focused to finish in 3 weeks! They look good but we need some close ups of each unit. I need more inspiration to work on my Saga Vikings. lol

It just took me 3 weeks to paint foot and mtd version of ONE character. Admittedly, I can't cram in painting time each day, but still...  ::)

Excellent, excellent figures! The ship inspires me to get mine done.

I could be mistaken, but I think I recognize some of those shields! Are they freehand? Or did you download those and print them off from Hour of Wolves? In any case, it's awesome to see them in action!

Thanks
