Good stuff. The use of sabots really works well to allow figures to be used for WM and Warband.

There is a lot of variation in the figures now - I like the rectangular shields with the three bosses

Nice work, Jim. Also impressed with the bases - the lines of the sabots look very precise. Did you cut them, acquire them by special order or are they available from Pendraken?
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

These are from Pendraken, dice frames from Mini-Bits.

Yup, still in bed for half a day at a time, still infectious, won't be allowed in public for at least another week, certainly can't paint as head is too sore.

Might try some filing of bases later today or tomorrow.

So, this is Wednesday, not a great day, had to take painkillers this afternoon but not as many as yesterday.

I did file the bases of the High Elf cavalry. They won't fit Warmaster bases without doing so.

I'll leave final inspection of actual size for tomorrow. It's not something that can be fixed after paint is on them.

So, it's a start!
