Flat out awesome! was hoping you would make more, these are great, order incoming. Not sure if you are after some suggestions….. would really like to see in the Viking range, maybe in a personality pack? shield maidens, one or two, not the fantasy types (their rubbish), but more like in the Viking Tv series women dressed in viking gear fighting along side the men. Hero with a Dane Axe, you know the really long two handed types. Viking scout type, armed with a bow, think 13th warrior. and we need lots more bondi, maybe in quilted armour? you haven't done any like that yet. final request…….. A 15mm Viking ship with proper dragon head.

Are the shields separate, because the figures look good, but the shields are too thick. Wy oh why do we keep getting thens with little pointed cloth caps. First item of armour you would get is a helmet. A/S swords and Viking swords are designed for slashing over the shield wall. Thegns would be up front in the line and would get their skulls stove in if they had no skull protection.

Emphatz, Thanks! Happy to take suggestions but as always, can't promise they will happen. Some of this is in the works, however, and I will let you know as I have greens. Chances are I will not do a ship as I am not focusing on resin for the foreseeable future. I do appreciate the ideas though. David splinteredlightminis.com

Lewisgunner, The shields are separate and as thick as they are since they need to be thick enough to cast reliably. David splinteredlightminis.com

Glad to see them up on the website, I'll have to finish painting my Normans so that I can order some Saxons! The only thing I think the Norman, Vikings, A-S lines need are some light calvary/skirmishes. Similar to the set you make for your Picts. Of course more characters would be welcome too.
