Norman Light Slingers - Tumbling Dice

Set  NF12. 8 Bods in 4 poses. As my basic rule is to try and paint only one of any pose unless I can convert somehow (head swop, weapon change etc)
I´ve painted the 4 poses in a uniformed look. They are Normans after all but obviously they could be used as soldiery for other armies of the period and with a less uniformed paint job.
The other 4 repeat poses? I might convert to early medievals but first a few more dark age bods need painting.

      I´ll be posting a lot more in the next few weeks. The problem with TD is there are no pics on the site and that put me off buying them for a long time. I have made him the offer of using my pics for free on his site..it´s up to him if he does or not

    Great looking Normans! But they could be Irish, Welsh, Saxon, etc. Pretty versatile troops.

    Excellent work as usual ...
    The comparison picture is very interesting because it shows that Strelets and TD fit perfectly.
    Did you notice that the arrow of the archer is not on the good side of the bow ?

      Thanks:-)
      The arrow not on the good side of the stave? It´s positioned correctly for the european style, ie; on the left of the stave, the other side is the eastern style.
