The appeal of wild celtic figures is what first got me to fully jump into
historicals beyond just painting the odd pack as a diversion. While I would
like to put together a complete army, at present I am working at finishing these
figures more at the warband or unit level. One can be reasonably accurate
with mixing of figure ranges, at least as far as I'm concerned. With that in
mind I basically have gone about collecting various figures and painting them up
in stripes & plaids, tattoos, and colorfull shields. With the addition of some
Germans and or Norse, I can make armies typical of many of the nations and
tribes of the early Britons, Late Roman allies, Hiberno-Norse, Scots,
Picts, and a bit of Gaul. It is convenient when historical versatility
meshes with my wanton aesthetic whims.
