Atheling's Anglo-Danish Huscarl/Fyrd Unit Five

I seem to be taking myself by surprise presently; on a bit of a roll at the with the completion of the Italian Mounted Arquebusiers a few days ago and now a 24 man unit of Anglo Danes to add to my army.

I have just one more unit of Huscarls/Fyrd, a unit of Norse mercenaries and two twelve man units of skirmishers to do and the army will have got as far as I had plans for! I find myself in the unusual position of actually getting very close to finishing as project!

There are many more pictures of the unit from a variety of angles on my Just Add Water Blog here:

Very nice Darrell, I don’t seem to be able to find the time for painting as busy with grandchildren during the day and too knackered at night.
