Looks awesome.
Lots of details and textures on this fig and you've tackled them all admirably... Well done
Hope to see more pieces along these lines from you

Magnificent work all round. Fantastic display piece, the sort of work that really captures the viewers attention.
Love it.

Beautiful paintwork . Really like the groundwork and the grey horse . Did you have any problems with fit of parts ? as I have just finished Andreas Hernan Cortez and the neck of the horse was far too narrow for the body !

Cheers

Hi guys, I just woke up down here in Australia to all your nice comments.
Thanks to all of you for taking a look and commenting. Much appreciated!

Neil, I think this kit is an old one from Andrea - the quality of casting and fit of the parts was a bit shady in places. There was an annoying casting defect right over his helmet that took a while to clean up too. It's still a beautiful kit though, and well worth the effort.

No worries, mate! The Andrea Viking you did recently was a stunner, so I reckon you would go to town on this guy.

Hi Nick

A beauty mate. The details on the banner and the shield are amazing. You've taken a huge step forward with this figure and definitely raised the bar for yourself. You should also know that these pictures don't do justice to this figure. It's do much better to look at in the flesh.

Fantastic work, Nick!

I can't add more in the way of superlatives than has already been said A beautifully compact and evocative piece
A bit more colourful than WWII, eh?

Cheers, Alan

 

[NickM]

Thanks Alan. Yep, this one was a nice change from Khaki battledress

Well done, Nick, a big change from 50 shades of kakhi/feldgrau! There is life beyond the modern era. Welcome to the madhouse.
