I painted some Normans. Maybe they'll fight some of the vikings or even show up in a fantasy game some time.
I'm (obviously) going for a red and white theme for these knights. The minis are the familiar (to collectors of 28mm Norman miniatures) Conquest plastics.
Five knights gloriously repositioning. |
But as we all know, sometimes the Normans fought on foot. Attempting to reflect historical reality I managed to paint a small handful of Norman infantry as well.
I think the fellow in the middle is supposed to be William the Bastard, but I'm not sure. Anyhow, here he is with a few stout lads. |
Still going with the red and white scheme, as you can see. If I recall correctly, they're all old Citadel historicals from the pre-slotta days. Pretty sure they're lead and everything.
Notice the distinctive shaved-back-of-the-head hairstyle which apparently was very fashionable at the time. |
Weird you'd have a whole group of people with the same given name. How do they tell each other apart?
