I now have a free sample mini for my Early Medieval Picts! A bit of a preview of what's to come.

Another bonus WIP, more fantasy projects (I swear I'll release something eventually) in the form of handgunners.

Today's #WIPWednesday brings more heads, this time they're wearing these things called helmets.
Evidence for Pictish helmets is about as scarce as it gets, so for most of these I have taken notes from the neighbouring Anglo-Saxons.

Today's #WIPWednesday brings these handsome faces, the heads for the set of Pictish swordsmen.

#WIPWednesday presents the final swordsman of the set.
Now there's just a boatload of details I need to figure out.

Bonus WIP: Rivets.
I modelled this helmet after the Benvie stone as well as Anglo-Saxon helmet finds in Wollaston and Coppergate (minus the cheek guards).

#WIPwednesday brings another Pictish swordsman, plus some swords! Taking notes from finds dating from before and during the Viking age.

#WIPWednesday coming at you with some tassels! They weren't the easiest to figure out how to do but I got there in the end.

You didn't get a #WIP on Wednesday so you're getting it on Thursday.
Mainly the cloth details and shoes are on the to do list for swordsman #1, so I'm going to put him to the side for the time being and do the other 3.

Pictish art includes many figures with decorated tunic hems, trying to replicate this while keeping the detail actually paintable isn't the easiest.
I'll definitely need to check the test prints to see if it is too small to paint.

Another set of extras, this time its decorated #pictish shields, some of these are taken from the few examples on Pictish stonework, but others are based on Pictish art in general.

The leaders of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will gather on Monday to sign a deal designed to kick-start the break-up of the United Kingdom, The Telegraph can disclose.

There's not been many #WIPWednesday 's thanks to the past few weeks at work kicking my ass.
But I thought I'd go back to something I had been meaning to do for a while, a freebie #Kobold with a gonne.
Just spent a week fussing over accurate sword belt suspension.
This is why everything takes so long.
I hope everyone's looking forward to the complete Pictish army set release in 2050.

Another intermission, where I randomly got the idea to model another thing not specifically war related.
In this case it's a river currach, similar to the Welsh coracle, a small boat.

I was in need of some animals/objectives thusly I give you; The Skanderan Furvole.
The Furvole is a large domesticated rodent. Originally from the northern iceplains, they are clad in wooly fur and is the main staple of meat and cloth for most people.
#Fantasy #Wargaming
#WIPWednesday Still throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks, annoyingly there isn't much to go by for Pictish swords.

Story Idea: Don Quixote but chinese where its a random Rich dude in 2020 from Guangdong or something who watched too many kung fu movies, goes insane, and becomes convinced he is a Kungfu master and starts roaming the south being a general annoyance to the populace
