You are probably right Leon, but I'm kind of focusjng on producing units at the minute, rather than top quality.




edited to make sense 

Zweihanders



Stuck the figures on bases, and a bit of work on the flag - couldn't find a dragon decal, but went with a wing

Very nice indeed

Take care

Cheers Andy.

Was there ever anything like that level of uniformity?

Among Fantasy troops? If you want there to be, of course!

Great flag!

Stonking work, Forbes ! 
They really look 'the biz'.

Thanks chaps.

Regarding uniformity - as I says it's a Fantasty unit, rather than an historical one. And Fantasty armies do seem to end up much more uniform. Mine are pretty rag-tag when compared with others in my group. One of the guys has Orc, Rat and Chaos armies all of which show a degree of uniformity which would please a Guards Sergeant Major.

I tend to go for a degree of common colour within units, and commands. But still mix it up a bit. There is also a practical side, it's much easier to distinguish units on the table when the troops have consistent colours, and it's quicker to paint the unit with fewer colours.

In no way was I trying to dictate policy to you. Just took them for Landsknechts, and was puzzled by the limited palette.

That's ok, I hadn't thought you were. Yes for historicals I would have mixed it up far more, and would probably still be painting them!   

Saga

Played a big game of Saga last night, 4 players a side, with each player having a 4pt warband, it was basically Vikings vs Anglo Danes



Took a while to get started as it was a long time since any of us had played, but turned in a to a right old punch up. I have no idea what happened on the far flank. In the middle my two allies emerged pretty much unscathed holding the centre. With the two opposing warbands wiped out.



On my flank I was down to my last man - while the battered but still fairly strong Jomsvikings held the farm. A lot of my fighting had been directed towards the middle viking force. Who are in the dead pile by the coffee cup!



And following any good game, the first thing to do is look for reinforcements


These are Gall Gaelhill - norse /gaelic mercenaries

Great looking game, that man !

Had a productive day - got 2 more painting sticks cleared (4 this week now).

Water Elementals



These are the new re-sculpted ones - and they are very cool - the 'worm' like ones are very dynamic.

Pegasui

Thanks, Forbes......Very pleased you like 'em.

I really like what you've done with those. 

Cheers - Phil
