It's been a bit of an eclectic painting week as I finished off a couple of things I started too long ago.
Firstly, as a proof of concept, I finished a deep unit of Goths for To the Strongest! They aren't the points bomb they might appear to be, unfortunately. All but 6 of the figures were painted over a year ago, and have been lying around waiting for a few reinforcements and basing. The majority are Wargames Atlantic Goths, with six newly painted figures from Footsore. They are the 5 figures with helmets in the front rank, and another hairier chap up the back somewhere.
I like the guy who seems to have noticed the camera.
During the Challenge last year I enjoyed painting some lovely reivers from Flags of War. I assembled six broken men on foot, stuck them to their bases....and got sidetracked on to other things. It was a pleasure finally painting them this week. Who knows? At this rate I might finally have a game of Border Wars around AHPC XX.
12 figures for 60 points please Millsy!
From DaveD - aka Millsy . Ooh Alan they are cracking.i really like the mob look , the close packed tension of it all . I live in Reivers territory it’s always great to see these re-created . I’m making this up,to 65 my friend .
Lovely goths & reivers. A great looking mob.
ReplyDeleteVery nice entry. Lots of figures on one base really does give that mass effect.
ReplyDeleteThe reivers look good, but I really like that big unit of Goths, they look like they mean business.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff - I really like the Goth base and the mass "mob" effect. Seeing that I feel some of my own Goth heavy infantry bases look a bit skimpy by comparison.
ReplyDeleteThe massed Goth base is spectacular. I like the feel of the reivers as well. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThe colours on these are spot on and very evocative!
