After completing a mounted version of my second retinue, it was appropriate to do the same for my first retinue. So William de Vesci, Baron of Alnwick finally got himself a horse and so did his banner man. Both figures are from Fireforge miniatures.
The crosses aren't too bad, I may have to resort to transfers in the future because as I get older I find my hands are less steady. But still at least I have the option to field him either on foot or mounted. The only other thing I did this weekend was a hand cart from Warbases. Another bit of scenery to bring the table to life.
Quite a rustic little piece and can see some use in a number of periods.
In other news I finally picked up the Midgard rules, it may spur me on to get back to the Punic wars and paint up those Carthaginians, though I do have enough Barons war figures to try out the rules
I like your hand painted crosses. They show some personality.
ReplyDeleteNicely done Neil, they look great and hopefully will perform well on the table! The little hand cart is a lovely little piece of scatter, very handy.
