Baron Eustace of Lowdham and two men at arms from the baron wars range. These three chaps are my first entrance into the Library as new minis that arrived just of late |
| I was n’t looking forward to painting Eustance with all that white and tiny yellow crosses but was really happy with how he turned out. Total of 3 cavalry here. |
| This next batch is my second entry into the Library as these chaps have been sitting in their box for years, and they were actually bought second hand off a friend so who knows how long the lads have been sitting in the dark. I’m not the greatest fan of Gripping beast figures Until they are painted so I’m sure they are please to see the light of day. 9 cavalry here |
| Who doesn’t like a good smattering of Norman archers, unless you are on the receiving end, we have 12 archers here |
| And to finish off the boxset we have 8 crossbow which are a mix Of armoured and unarmoured |
So for points we have 12 x 28mm cavalry for 120 points 20 x 28mm foot for 100 points AHPC Library entrance Overdues & returns 20pts New acquisition 20pts Total 260 points |

First, welcome back to the Challenge, Kent! It's been a few years since you were last with us, but that certainly hasn't dulled your productivity. What a lovely medieval points bomb! As always, I admire your clean, precise and bright brushwork, especially on the heraldry and livery of these Norman fellows. I'm with you in your estimation of some of Gripping Beast's early sculpts, but as you say they look absolutely terrific when they're all painted up - especially to this quality. Bravo!
