During the 11th century AD, Normans did not only conquer England, but went also to South Italy from where they attacked the Emirats of Sicily, and eventually created a Kingdom in the 12th century AD.

Another nice post with Strelets Normans. Another great 1/72 range.

Thank you Legionarius.
At first (I mean 15 years ago), I wasn't a fan of Strelets, but their style proved very effective on the French Cuirassiers, and moreover, their sets with standing poses are a must, as these Normans.

Despite having large 15mm and a few 28 collections, I have rediscovered 1/72. Strelets figures are a big part of this trend on my part. They are larger than 15s not as demanding as 28s, and the price is unbeatable. Strelets pack a lot of character into their figs. And yes, there is much more to Norman's and 1066! Advent Cheers! Looking forward to your next installment!
