Rangers

The counts rangers are a hardy bunch of men (and women), skilled woodsmen and expert trackers. They patrol the woods and mountain passes, forming the first line of defense against the incursions greenskins.

The group is made up of all my odds and ends carrying bows or hunting crossbows.



I rounded off the unit with some of the new Oathmark humans. A nice kit of generic fighters and they make pretty good looking rangers types in my opinion


Some of my favorites here. From the left we have an Asgard/Viking Forge (Sternbow), a Citadel AD&D Ranger, Citadel Boromir (the new line) and another Citadel AD&D ranger.

More favorites. All three are Citadel, the Indian (I call him chief Falling Rocks) and the mountain man on the right are two of my favorite Citadel pieces and make perfect rangers.

I believe the chap on the left is from Grenadier, the dwarfess is a Reaper bones (Dwarf or just a full figured lass?) and the lad on the right is an old Tom Meier/Ral Partha elf.

I believe these are Ral Partha, two of which are from their old Dragonlance line. I'm not sure who makes the Robinhood looking fellow.


I also picked up a new scenery piece from a Hobby Lobby discount bin. Its one of those garden fairy decoration pieces but I think it fits in fine as a fantasy tree house and scales nicely.


Thanks for looking,
Bye for now-

Sister of Sigmar (Daughters of Freya)

Hi folks,

A couple weeks ago the Mad Viking graciously sent me a Sister of Sigmar for commenting on one of his videos.

So I painting her.  And that was all the inspiration I needed to finish painting off the few other Sisters Ive had kicking about.

The Bertha Bestraufrung I've had painted for a while and she's usually used as a warrior priestess in my Stirland army. I painted them in green rather then the traditional red to help match in with my Stirland army (Daughters of Freya?).





The Mad Viking has inherited the massive collection Steveb a long time member of the warhammer-empire.com.  The Mad Viking has taken on the incredible task of documenting and sharing Steve's massive collection. If your a fan of old school miniatures, massive painted armies, oldhammer, middlehammer etc, I highly recommend taking a look and subscribing to his youtube channel.
