Saxons on Horseback - Saga!

 These are some kit bashes that I put together.  I believe the horses are from Perry Miniatures, the rider bodies are Conquest Games Normans, and the heads are Gripping Beast Saxons and a GW Bretonian.
 Really cool miniatures to paint.
 It's been awhile since I have painted horses, they are always a challenge for me.
 I think I got the eyes right.  The one below is the rider with the GW head.


 I really like the pose of this guy.


So there you go some Saxons.....more to follow.

SAGA's King Alfred....

I enjoy the Saxon tales from Bernard Cornwell.  A while back I picked up this Gripping Beast Alfred model before I picked up the Saxon Miniatures models.
 Least to say I'm kind of disappointed by the model.  Its not a great sculpt, its better than the Hereward miniature, but still not very good.
I think Gripping Beast is missing the mark on many of their HQ models.

A SAGA Warlord...

 I finished up painting this miniature.  I'm not really sure who manufactured this mini to begin with.  The casting took a bit of work to smooth out.  I think the paint scheme turned out okay.
 Its kind of a neat pose.  The casting on the cape is a bit rough, but  it does kind of look a bit tattered.
I don't plan on keeping this miniature.  It will likely go up on auction on Ebay soon.

Saga Warlord

I'm cleaning out the bits box, can't remember where I got this miniature from, but I thought it would be cool to paint it up as a SAGA hq model on a GW 40 mm base.
Tree stump is resin piece that I had laying around.
Rocks are fake apoxie sculpt pieces with HO scale rail road ballast.
