A Converted Horn-Blower & GB Warriors!

The majority of these are Gripping Beast stalwarts for the shieldwall, with the exception of Harold Horn-Blower. Perhaps a distant ancestor of Horatio, this Horn-Blower is a conversion using a body from Blacktree Designs, a head from Westwind's Dark Age ranges, a fur cape made from greenstuff, and a shield that I believe came from a plastic GW orc. Don't like to waste a figure if I can avoid it :-)
The shields are a mix of decals and freehand.








All the best,
John.

    1. Well I did a quick count the other day and there were about 170 including civilians & casualties - not including the animals :-) Still seem to have quite a lot unpainted.
