Photos of my Dark Age collection of Vikings, Saxons and Welsh
The Dark Ages, or Early Medieval as they probably shoudl be called, has become somewhat of a favourtie period of mine thanks to the wonderful ranges by Footsore Miniatures, sculpted by Matthew Bickley. They are very fun to paint and look really good in photos too. There are a few other 28mm Viking ranges photographed here too, Gripping Beast and Warlord Games both have great sculpts by Colin Patten. Wargames Foundry's range is very characterful too.
There are plenty of articles about the Dark Ages too
When Footsore Miniatures launched their Viking Kickstarter featuring Matthew Bickley's sculpts, I broke my self-imposed "No Kickstarters" rule - and I'm glad I did. But do they live up to Footsore's bold claim of being "probably the best ever made"?
