Iain W first Quarantine post Irish/ Highlanders (105 points)

So continuing on from the Analogue challenge I have 21 Irish or Highlanders for Flodden.  They are a mix of Perry ,Old Glory and some old re purposed Ral Partha Vikings. They seemed nearly done on the last day of the challenge but clearly I was well off!
To be fair even though I'm no longer working I've had less painting time than when I do work as I'm seemingly repainting lots of the house before digging for victory in the garden!






There will be some more for this project to add to the ones done in the challenge. 
So not Romans but maybe soon after various other bits and bobs.
21 x 5 is 105 points for my own total

All the best
Iain

    Great work Iain! I love seeing this mix of figures, especially the older Ral Parth vikings. Recycling at its finest. :)

    Nice bunch of highlanders, I am glad there is a bagpiper (and no sound!).

    Can you enter the repainting of your house as a painting challenge entry?

    Your highlanders look like they mean business, well done.

    A good collection. The different manufacturers seem to mix well. And I like your idea of incorporating dark age figures for Flodden - never thought of that, but will now see what I might cobble together. A good points total, too!

    Lovely group of ragged Irish Iain, reminds me of a family wedding just before the fighting starts 😁

      Thanks Ken! Nothing says wedding like lurching drunken men in clothes they're uncomfortable with!

      Thanks Peter! There maybe more Ral Partha of the same era later!
