Viking Army

Our Vikings so far

 Viking warband

 Viking Hirdmen

 Viking bowmen

 Viking command, Vikings triumphant!

Viking Command, the interrogation, 'we intercepted no letters, we are a Diplomatic ship'

28mm Viking Jarl or walord, general, etc ....

My viking jarl, I wanted him to stand out, so strangling a saxon prisoner suits the theme of my bloodthirsty viking army.  I went for the Darth Vader look!

28mm Vikings

 Vikings from gripping beast, I did these guys a while ago and forgot to post the pics, I have done the saxons since and to be honest there is little difference, but what would one expect.

 I love the figures, I like them more than the saxons as you get much more of a feel of realisum for the poses than in the saxon box.

Vikings!

 

A Pack of 6mm Vikings from Baccus.

These are a new range for Baccus and well over due. The figs are lovely and all mixes of poses which is always better than boring Napoleonic's all in rank and file. Don't get me wrong I like Napoleonic but as a painter they are rather dull to paint, very little variety.

Viking Fortress & Village

 

This was a commission order and the first time I ever tried doing some 28mm dark age scenery. I enjoyed doing the buildings they proved very interesting, the Fort took a little more thinking.

 

The Fortress walls are of sticks of the kind you get in the garden centre, I like the tower best, and the whole thing fits the figures very well.

The buildings for the village consist of a Blacksmiths Forge with well, a Cottage and two Hovels of the Viking style. In 28mm they look passable I think.
