Just a few photos of some of the above. As these are not by any means new and given the subject matter I thought this post would be better placed here other than 'what I'm painting now', plus there seems to be a shortage of posts in this section.. These boys were painted quite a few years ago as can be seen by the fact that none use the fantastic shield transfers that are now available!
Truthfully the are painted to a decent war game standard and certainly not a match for many of the great figure painters on these boards, but they do for me and that's what counts.

Wargames standard? Those my friend are bloody impressive.

Thanks mate, but if I took a better quality photo you could see the difference between these and some of the eye watering paint jobs on this forum.
I will get round to making a light box and putting some pics of the other better units I have painted over the years individually rather than take them outside where the dogs have a chance to munch them up!

I'm with Jim: these are far better than
wargames standard, to be sure!

Sheepman, you have some mighty impressive armies hiding up there in the folds of Northumbria!
