TOPIC: 1066 and all that |
Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 7th Jan 2024 03:43:18 Not content with the number of projects I've started in the last year, I've set another hare running, this time 1066 using Ravenfeast. Here is the Norman force. https://pushingtinwargames.blogspot.com/2024/01/new-year-new-project.html

Standard User Posts: 185 David Kay 10th Jan 2024 08:54:43 Looks good - especially all the detail on the standards. |
Standard User Posts: 110 Leafs87 13th Jan 2024 12:01:33 Wow, well done. I'll echo David - those standards are just killer. The detail on your infantry/cav shields is also superb. Keep 'em comin'! |
Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 14th Jan 2024 11:47:00 Thanks for the positive comments :) Following on from my Normans for 1066 Ravenfeast, here are the Vikings. https://pushingtinwargames.blogspot.com/2024/01/more-1066-and-all-that-harald-hadradas.html |
Those armies look terrific. I too have taken the Ravenfeast 1066 Baccus plunge. A little goes a long way |
I just LOVE when members share PICS... specially when very nicely painted minis like this! |
Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 14th Feb 2024 02:53:32 Finally finished my Big battle Ravenfeast 6mm Saxons. Now moving on to terrain and markers... https://pushingtinwargames.blogspot.com/2024/02/1066-saxons.html The Godwinson Brothers Earl Morcar and his Hearthguard Earls Morcar of Northumbria and Edwin of Mercia Fyrd Fyrd Fyrd Archers Mounted Huscarls Huscarls The whole force 'Death worthy of a song markers' |
Very nice painting and modelling inspiration. I am also thinking of investing in TBM's motte and bailey castle and related buildings for some post-1066 games. A little goes a long way |
Standard User Posts: 183 pushing.tin 15th Feb 2024 09:54:50 Yes, I have been thinking the same thing, I've been looking for an excuse to get TBM's motte and bailey for some time, and now I have it! I have also been reading a book on the Conquest and there is plenty going on post-Hastings that doesn't get generally talked about, as well as several post-1066 attempted Viking invasions...not to mention all the stuff going on in Normandy.. So lots of replay value outside of the three battles of 1066. |
