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.

DeleteNicely 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.
ReplyDeleteCheers Donnie, I certainly hope they do
DeleteGreat work again 👏

DeleteI agree with Jon, You did a great job on the crosses, Neil. Great figures all round. I've got a few of those wheelbarrow's too, they're very handy for scatter terrain.
ReplyDeleteCheers Ray, the wheelbarrow will definitely see some use
DeleteA lovely addition to the Barons War collection Scotty both figures look excellent.
