For the HotT iteration of the Picts, I decided morphing psiloi into shooters would be appropriate, and to tie them in to the theme of the historical army, I have based them in a similar style with streams and rocky ground.
Additional elements of Warband just to give the army a touch of that fanatic zeal of the Picts.
This is an old camp that I revamped for the Picts. I had intended to make a Brooch camp, but maybe at a later date.
The hero element. He was the only one in the army well travelled enough to get a full sized non shaggy horse.
Hunting dogs will play as a beast element.
A Grendel type monster for a Behemoth. Thanks to Terry Webb for this figure. Hope he doesn't tromp on all the flowers, or eat them!
This is my favorite element. A splintered light Dryad is the focus of the efforts of three druids as they call upon her power to cast a spell. The Dryad is a marvelous casting which I flocked with fiber floss to give a base for some coarse ground cover and leaves. The leaves are a Noch model railroading product.
Great looking bases. I really like the streams.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! The basing for the behemoth is particularly good looking.
ReplyDeleteHow did you do the flowers on the Behemoth base - looks very good!
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are a Model Railroading product. Noch and Silfor both make a similar flower tufts, which I cut into smaller pieces and just glue right on the stand. Very easy actually.
ReplyDeleteGreat army, David, never thought of HotT as an option for Picts and the like - always fancied a Saints versus druids match up (with obligatory minions) in the early medieval period. Might get me into HotT at last! Hmmm sounds like a project! Love Grendel among the flowers - very wry!
