Celtic civilians with somewhere to live.

[paulsmodellingworkshop]

I got the celtic civilians a while ago but have only just managed to get round to painting them. Nice sculpting and easy to paint:I added a dagger from the plastic celt set to show his 'freeman' status on the traveller.The pony is an original GW 'bill the pony' from their LOTR set that came out in the mid-eighties, I knew i'd find a use for it sometime!I alos figured they needed some livestock so I painted up some of the Architects Of War pigs - again nice sculpts and painted up well - with some (unknown manufacturer) sheep:So all I needed is something to display them on and they needed somewhere to live....Roundhuts and wicker fencing are by hovels and....pigs and logs/axes from Architects of War and....spears/shields are WG plastic - all other items scratchbuilt.Thinking about it now,  the 'celtic bodyguard' figure with arms crossed standing in front of his dwelling would look quite good and add something.

Lovely!

Nice! The inner child in me wants to see a treehouse with a prog rock bard.

[NORTIVS MAXIMVS]

 That's really very well done - excellent!

Lovely job!

[Cubster]

Lovely stuff. I have a huge pile of old cardboard inners from used rolls of tape, all ready for making those Celtic huts that I'll never get round to.

Lovely work, really good. Could almost do with Asterix and Obelix striding out of one of the huts. But seriously, great work.

[A Lot of Gaul]

Very nicely done! Great background image for the farmstead, as well. Cheers,Scott

Thank you all guys!! - how would my ego survive without you?!   I think I'll definitely add the bodyguard figure and possibly another traveller with cart. ....and chickens? Paul.

Chickens would make it I think! I've seen flowers done well too by painting dressmakers pins green with bright colours on the head and pushing them into the base material in little clumps - by that might be going too far...
