SAGA: 1st unit of warriors for my Irish force "Green Anger"

Time for a little variation before continuing with my Commonwealth project: Irish warriors for my SAGA force.

The main color of all the shields for my Irish will be a desaturated green, so that the impression of a cohesive force is created without looking too uniform.

In order to distinguish the units, the color of the shields will differ from unit to unit - in this case white.
Figures are from Footsore, shields as always with me Freehands.







Deutsche Version:
Zeit für ein klein wenig Abwechslung, bevor es mit meinem Commonwealth-Projekt weiter geht: Irische Krieger für meine SAGA-Truppe.

Die Hauptfarbe aller Schilde meiner Iren wird in einem desaturierten Grün gehalten sein, so dass der Eindruck einer zusammengehörenden Truppe entsteht, ohne allzu uniform zu wirken.
Um die einzelnen Einheiten an sich unterscheiden zu können, wird sich die Farbe für die Schildmotive von Einheit zu Einheit unterscheiden - hier in dem Falle also Weiß.

Figuren sind von Footsore, Schilde wie immer bei mir Freehands.

SAGA: The last mohicans ... err 4 miniatures to complete my 2 units of Irish Kerns - Bowman!

With the last missing 4 miniatures, my two units of Irish Kerns are thus completed and ready for action!

This time, it´s 4 Kerns with bow, 2 of them (far left and far right) are Gripping Beast Dark Age Archers and the other ones (the both in the middle) are scratch built from Crusader Late Saxons and heads from GP´s Dark Age Warriors - with added bow strings to all of the bows.

SAGA: Slingers again!

The last slingers for my Kerns, the last 4 missing miniatures to complete the two units of my Kerns will have a bow each - you know, for variety 😉

Miniatures are from Footsore again - nice sculpts, clear casts, simply a joy!

SAGA: You are the next!

Not just another addition to my Irish Kerns, but a fantastic sculpted one too!

Miniature is from Warlord Games Celts for their SPQR range but will blend in perfectly to my slingers - the pose is really spectacular, pointing the enemy and (hopefully) frightening him: You are the next! - or as we say in Germany: Du bist der Nächste!

Do I have to say it was a joy to paint? 😉

SAGA: The priest is coming to bolster the Irish!

Of course, my Irish also need a priest for their soul healing - and here he is, ready to banish all adversaries directly and without detours into to hell!

Miniature is Pater Beocca (the one and only from Bernard Cornwells series "The Saxon Stories" or Uhtred-Saga, as it is known here in Germany) and comes from Stronghold Terrain.
