I have had these miniatures half painted for over a year. And between priming some other miniatures it was time to paint the last bits on them.
The miniatures are all Victrix miniatures and I really like them.
With a limited colour palete these were rather quick to paint.
I have painted a large unit of Kievan Russ Vikings. As a Swede I think its mutch more interesting to look to the east and what the Vikings did there instead of the more `common´ knowledge on the Vikings that are more Anglocentric.
So here we have another unit of Kievan Russ Vikings.
The miniatures are mostly plastic Victrix and I said it before and I say it again, these are some of in not the best plastic kit Ive ever bought.
To get even more variation I have mixed in some metal miniatures, mostly from Drabant Miniatures or Gripping Beast.
I wanted a unit of Norsemen with some Slavic touches to represent the unique Kievan Russ.
Painting wise I wanted them dirty and gritty but still with lots of nice colours.
The miniatures are really nice detailed, really nice scale and have lots of variations and movement to them.
I based the miniatures to be used in massed games like Hail Ceasar or Lions Rampant (with wounds marker or if I paint up more single miniatures for wounds swapping).
