normans in the south

Progress on Normans and some Saxons

I have started my Normans in the South project by painting up some Strelets figures. These are a bit chunky but on the whole a likeable set of figures. I used the figures from the big Stamford Bridge set and the mini sets for Normans

i have opted for an arid south mediterranean look rather than a dark earthy northern europe one
in slightly different light the ground does not look quite like a desert!
so a few archers and now a few spearmen – i have opted for a more open look with the shieldwall not formed
I quite like some of the before battle poses strelets have done although figures do vary in size. I am not looking for the regimented look anyway.
I am quite happy with the look including the vegetation. the bases are all 80mm x 60mm and I shall use them for either AMW, DBA or Impetus games amongst others.
