Viking general
recently I have been thinking up ways to make a boring infantry general interesting, and what better way to that than to add a few corpses! Doing this really adds a scense of drama to an element and makes it into a small vignette and is a great use for your extra figures in this case a rather unfortunate Saxon fyrdman

"IN SEARCH OF VIKINGS" - AMON AMARTH
Oh yes! this has to be my favorite arrayed shot EVER! Dad did an amazing job of capturing the drama of a Vking army storming the shore in search of plunder and conquest! Waht is remarkable about this picture is how the water part of the water way piece seemlessly blends into the grey background thus enhancing the feel of a dark and gloomy North Sea day and the doom that the darkenss heralds!
Essex Army pack
Well back with another fantastic army for your viewing pleasure this time its II/68a Pictish from Essex here they are arrayed in front of a wonderful Broch camp built by our very own Patrick Patterson. Patrick also made a lovely highland cow as a denizen of this lonely outpost.
Pictures as always are by my dad Laurence Johnson and are some his best 15mm work to date! yay dad!
