Here he goes again! Top work, super impressed as usual!

 Yep they aren't smooth and sexy, they've had a couple of axes to the face and weathered some winters. They're hardass warriors, not pin ups. Part of the Believable Female Miniatures Project.

Hervor


and Lathgertha, in case you missed her before!

I love these figures, and the painting and basing are fantastic.

Really nice.

Wish these were available when I was in the Norsemen mood. It was really hard to find believable shieldmaidens then.
Hopefully I can return to the Dark ages soon enough.

Far more believable than the usual run of shield maidens. They would be rather useful in a township defence scenario.
