That should put the fear of god in any Saxon raiders he comes barring down on.

Amazing work!

Was the color purple only wear by noble, knights, kings, etc. in those days?

Thanks chaps  :)

The gold looks so cool and The purple..please tell me which colour you used!

Jan, I'm afraid it's out of production now. It's Inscribe brand / Palmer Prism 'Red Violet' (basically mauve-purple) 59Ml. craft acrylic.
Sadly they've stopped making this paint range now...  :(

EDIT: Although interestingly, having just looked at the manufacturer's website in the US, they seem to have started making them again:

Will have to work out how to get my hands on some fresh supplies of this excellent range of paints...

Well, after a rather long hiatus, I've returned to this project with a vengeance, prompted by the arrival - finally! - of the Saga Arthurian supplement. So I have now painted rather a lot of Late-Romano-British-Arthurian types...

This was my entry in the last round of the LPL



And here are the figures that were newly painted for that...

The shields are LBM decals - although with a significant amount of over-painting and weathering in order to blend in the edges and make them look a little more battered.

They're all Footsore (although they were still Musketeer when I bought most of them!) with the exception of the hornblower, which is a Drabant miniature.

The draco is a plastic Gripping Beast item.

Very inspirational Richard and to your normal high standard, my favourite is the muscled cuirass and the shields which are sublime.

I've never been all that keen on the late Roman fashion sense (I mean, a muscle cuirass and pajama bottoms just don't go together, seriously), but boy, have you done them justice!
