Nope, not that lot..the below were a real bunch of rohirrim, the influencial and powerfull French Family of Rohan.
I wasn´t Hunting for anything to do with LotR when I came across them. TBH, I can´t remember what I was researching..something medieval for sure but what exactly.. no idea.
The named bods are from the 12th -14th centuries and would not have met or even lived at the same time as each other but having them as a Group makes for a good titel.
The Standard bearer carries the Main C-o-A of the house of Rohan. Shields and flag are printed.
Alan III of Rohan, Viscount of Rohan (1135-1195) Gules, seven Mascles or
Josselin of Rohan of the Rohan-Montaubans. (??)Gules, nine Mascles or and a cadency mark Argent
Alan VI. (1232-1304). Rohan-Gue-de-I´lsle. Gules, nine mascles with Bend Argent
As usual, they´ve been added to the Medieval Lords and Ladies list
The make of the bods and most of the nags? The nag* riden by Josselin of Rohan has Ralpartha on it´s base but the rest are unknown makes.
*I added I tail.
That's bloody nice red work Paul!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great colour, imagine seeing those charging towards you!
ReplyDeleteLike always very nice work ! The painting work is just ... er... perfect !
ReplyDeleteRohan is a very usual Name in France ...
And rather tasty they look too!
ReplyDeleteI feel tricked. 😀
ReplyDeleteNice painting on these miniatures though.
The real question is: Did they respond to beacons as calls for aid?
ReplyDeleteExcellent work as usual. Love how that red turned out.
