Following on from the last batch of pike-wielding Picts, I finished off the rear-rankers for an eventual 12-man schiltron in full-size games of Dragon Rampant. More likely, I'll pair three of these and three of the front-rankers in each of two of the half-size units we typically field.
As with the previous lot, these are all from Footsore, with the drill-out hands that I love. That said, a lesson learned - drill out the hands before gluing to bases. The helmeted guy, who will nominally be a unit commander in the full block of 12, was intended to have an upright spear, but I just couldn't get an angle that would accommodate it. The more casual pose was permitted by repurposing what should have been a shield hand, and while it suits the character, it does make ranking him up a bit of a chore!
So, the forces of the Old Faith are coming along nicely.
I'm not sure what's next up. As noted in the previous blog, I don't fancy painting another dozen Picts right away, even though I have the models - so I think it's time for a bit of shopping...
