Another update to my Anglo-Saxon Chronicle....

More Anglo-Saxon warriors. These fellows are of mixed status, some are armed with swords & two wear helms - I'm sure items like that would have been handed down & well looked after, perhaps looted from foes.
These are all 28mm metal miniatures from Gripping Beast. The shields are a mix of freehand and LBMS decals.







All the best,
John.

20mm "Modern Conflicts" Commission Work.

I don't think I've posted these pictures before:




















They represent work from three different commissions, that is why there is such a variety of basing.

20mm US Airborne for Normandy Part 1

I have been painting some more miniatures for Matt from Elhiem Figures. This time it's US Airborne which I have painted as the 82nd "All American". These are painted and sculpted in the Normandy uniform which was a different cut & colour to the later gear issued for Market Garden etc.
I really enjoyed painting these & even managed some unit insignia on the arms. The figures are really worth getting if you have any interest in building a US Airborne force in 20mm.





















I am just finishing the second batch which will include some special weapons & other interesting figures.

All the best,
John.

The Archers...Not the Ambridge Variety

These are metal Gripping Beast 28mm Anglo Saxon archers. Not sure when I finished these. I think I mentioned before, I've been working on the Anglo Saxons over the last couple of years - when not doing commission painting. I mostly work on them in the evenings and weekends.













All the best,
John.
