Hi guys, while I've been working on the Norse, I've been planning my next War Band, and have decided on Empire, probably Averland, I will use these old Museum Landsknecht figures and give most of them head swaps from some old Gothic knights, the knights are to small but have big heads so the fit will be good, and they will all get a re paint.

WIP 15mm Norse War band
Hi guys, the Norse War band almost finished, just have to do a couple of details on these figures, have to do the base on the Jarl, find a warewolf to lead the wolf pack, do 3 or 4 bowman, and paint up a yeti and I will be done, the converted Celts turned out pretty nice.
Group shot

The Norse Marauders.

15mm Mordheim style war bands projects
Hi guys, a preview of my next project, some 15 mm Mordheim style war bands, I am finding my concentration challanged painting big forces, so I decided small groups is the way to go, I plan on doing a few of these, but here are the first 4, Norse, Chaos Circus freaks, Bretonnian, and undead, most of the figures will be converted, and some may be replaced or more figs added, we will see.
The first group will be the Norse, just need to find a nice Wulfen figure, I will probably use Splintered light werewolves, I will heavily convert the marauders, (5 figs on lower right) they are celts at the moment, I plan to change the shields to a round version, add fur caps, helmets, and give them axes, the Jarl, 2 Huscarls, Shaman and snow troll are all from copplestone castings, I will only do minor conversions (if any) to these superb figs, the wolves are from Black Raven foundry, and will not be converted.
The Bretonnians will require a bit of work, I'm not sure were the bowmen are from but they are rather nice and will stay in the group, the 3 knights are from Museum Miniatures (I think), I may replace these, they are slightly smaller then the bowman, I may just build up their bases, not sure, if I keep them they will need, head changes or at least head crests added, and the surcoat lengthened. The men at arms are from Essex and suffer from their usual dwarfism, I'm sure I will replace these, which is a pity, they are not bad poses, I will need 3 squires to round this group off, I will discuss the other groups later.
