Wow! Great assembly of men-at-arms and their supporters! The conversions are wonderful and have so much motion in them. The paintjobs are perfect. I think the down and dirty look is very appropriate for the GoT world.

I too love the job you did with the Cleganes. Next time you're taking pictures, could you get one more of the Hound? I'd like to see his face and sword better, if you have the opportunity.

Thanks for sharing,
Jevenkah

Thanks for your comments, Jevenkah - I'll try and get my wife to do some better close-ups (she's the better photographer) but until she does, I have this shot on file:-



Sandor is a converted Reaper Miniatures figure -

 - with a head swap, a bit of 'Greenstuff' work and some detail filing off - Reaper tend to be larger figures.

Cheers

Seriously wonderful thread, I love all the different houses you've managed to incorporate into your armies.

Hi,

I have about scaled down operations on my GoT collection (mainly due to space & kids).

However I am going to continue the odd figure.

Here's my latest effort:-

Prince Oberyn Nymeros Martell, known as the Red Viper



Cheers

Wow! That's a great looking guy! I'm planning to create him too at some point, but mine will look way different, but you gave me some nice ideas, thanks for posting!

Thanks for the extra pic of the Hound. The Red Viper has a stern, "I'm just here to fight" face. Neat figure for a character I had a hard time picturing. I don't recall, is the bronze armor your idea or from the books? Either way I think a neat fit for the desert folk of Dorne.

Hi,

Thank you.

He is described as having 'a pale red silk cloak and a shirt armoured with overlapping discs of bright copper' - I think if you really wanted to be pedantic - his shield should be shining steel with his sigil on.

I got the yellow tunic idea from the TV series.

He's a 'slightly' converted Artizan Andalusian.

Cheers
