Early Saxon

Great figures from Musketeer Miniatures.

 Hengest and Horsa.  Went for more exotic furs, arctic fox and lynx, as befits their status.

 Saxon Chieftan with bannerman. Banner depicting Woden and his ravens.

Aelle, King of the South Saxons, and bannerman with draco.  Bearskin this time. 

Etruscan command

Couldn't resist painting these great figures from Aventine Miniatures.  LBM shield transfers.  Normally paint my own shields but LBM do have some great products.
