Armbrustschutzen - Update

Image
I posted early on about my unit of Armbrustschutzen HERE . Though from my post about my master plans HERE , you will see that the goal is to have 10 not 5 of the chaps. At long last I have finished the final 5: This now means that 3 of my total of 5 units are complete and that 25 of the 47 models needed are painted. Over half way which is great!! Feels like it has taken an age. I suspect my 5 Fleglers will be easy to paint but I am still undecided if they are followers of Morr, Gadd or Taal.  I am leaning toward Morr, but as with the Holzfaller, they will not be part of the garrison. However whilst the Holzfaller are still villagers who just happen to take up arms against attackers, the Fleglers will be passing by around the time of the grand final battle.  Maybe guided by their deity as needed? Anyway, they are done and the spiel is on the website proper as normal.

Stefan Is Dead, Long Live Stefan

As I mentioned HERE  I used to play WFB 3rd edition with 10mm and I had a sort of mascot that had no purpose other than to amuse us. My old 10mm games were less narrative and story driven so I never did get round to writing anything about who Stefan was or why he was found lingering on battlefields drinking whilst perched on his barrel. I have now finished my 25mm version, and I am still no wiser as to who he is. I need to remedy that, I am thinking an agent of Ranald maybe, I really am not sure. If you have any ideas or suggestions please do drop them below!! 25mm Stefan and his smaller 10mm cousin. It is not my finest work but it will do, oh and I decided to base him after much pondering as this way he is a bit more stable and can double as a unit filler should the need ever arise.
