Here are some Early German cavalry that I've just finished painting. They're great figures by Wargames Foundry and look suitably fierce and hirsute! The shields are mainly hand painted, with a few LBM transfers. I swapped these figures years ago for some Vendel Persian cavalry and have finally got around to finishing them off. I have made a start on quite a few more cavalry and infantry units for my Early Germans with a real mix of ranges both plastic and metal.
Amazing looking cavalry sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal, they’re great figures.
DeleteWonderful work on some Foundry classics. Your paint job on the shields is impressive.
ReplyDeleteThanks Codsticker, the Gabrielle Esposito book Armies of the Germanic Peoples and the Lindsay Powell Osprey book Roman Soldier versus Germanic Warrior are good sources for the shield designs.
DeleteStunning Ancient cavalry, Mike! Always a treat to see your work
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, Foundry figures are always fun to paint.
