Dead Medievals

I could (if I had the Money to spare) get a load of dead from Ykreol, but then what to do with all the unusable or repeat pose bods? Battlefield scatter! :-D
This lot are all from different Strelets sets and will make casualty markers / "Decoration" for the Bannockburn battlefield.
Based. I´m using 6cm wide bases to fit alongside normal Impetus sizes.
Add some previous battlefield "scatter" (from the medieval casualties post) and a bit of ground cover to fill the gaps between the bases...

A crows eye view.

    Very nice, we really feel like being on a battlefield after the melee! Great looking ground, and very nice last pic too...

    The backdrop and scatter really adds to the scene, wonderful.
    What did you use for the scatter please Paul?
    Cheers,

      Thanks pat.
      It´s for model Train sets and is called "scatter material" from the Firm Faller. The stuff I´ve used is called "sandbrown" but it´s more a coffee colour than sand. It´s just fine enough to act as scatter and not so fine that it sticks to the basing so with a gentle tap on the base it falls off and it can be re-used.
      Here´s the code number
      170705 Scatter material, sandbrown 30g
      and a link

    Excellent, Paul - they look really terrific, and they will certainly bring a lot of realism to the battlefield.
