    AGE OF BLOOD- Viking Project Log

    I recently purchased these fantastic 40mm Vikings (more like 50, as they are twice the size of 40k figures) from sash and saber models


    http://www.sashandsaber.com/index.php4


    here is the test model i did, to see if i could do the fantastic sculps justice

    He turned out quite well, he is the leader of the Danish (viking) warband

    make no mistake he is BIG that is a 40mm base!!









    the icing on the cake is that this, being a small company they charge $40

    for boxed sets of 20 figures! (seperate head weapons and shield options)

    i have 2 warbands each of around 40 figures, and got them all for under $140

    heres 5 of the big chaps Sword Danes (elite warrior caste vikings armed with high end equipment)

    Thats some good quality right there, and a good paint job to match. How about a scale shot with say a marine so we can get a sense of how big it really is?

    BEARDS > everything.

    Those models are lovely and the paint job makes them even more so. Get some more of these northern raiders done.

    im having real difficulty picking out a paint scheme for my saxon hearth troops...

    They are similar to the vikings with rounded (bubble almost?) shields and long cloaks.

    I was thinking either dark red shields\cloaks.. or dark purple? thatd be a REALLY wealthy lord though...

    Wow, those are truley beautiful. As for the colors on the saxon hearth troops, why not try a light or almost dark blue.
