Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Indeed I still have quite a list

My Saxons need a couple of Archers and
I still need suitable figures for

Mordred
Gwenhwyfar
Vortigern
As well as a Druid,Bard, Hag, and a Sorceress

And then it's on to the monsters...

Saxons are almost done, mix of Lancashire and Pendrakens. Just need a couple of suitable bowmen

The two axe heads on the left look a bit darker than those on the right. Is that lighting and/or intended?

And after a lte night of modelling here she is



Stripped down a little on the detail, greenstuff is hard to work with at this scale but she fits in well with the collection so I'm happy enough

Now to find a Mordred and a Morgana

Reminds me of when I used to start doing stuff - converting models - when I'd gone to bed, and it'd be just gone midnight. Having your painting table in your bedroom, sometimes isn't conducive to getting a good night's rest - another reason why I'm now moving stuff into our spare room.

Won't be the first time I've sculpted using blu-tak and used superglue over the top of it as a hardener - though, from memory, I've only ever used greenstuff on 10mm stuff.

Don't bother they are fine.  I have a couple of axes, one of which was my grandfather's, came to me via my father, so it must be over 100 years old, and their heads are not the same colour.
