Final WIP for the #pictish spearmen I swear, the heads!

An image of 4 3d modelled pictish warriors with spears and shields.
Just to make sure they can in fact be lined together in a shieldwall.
The #pictish spearmen will be ready to be released hopefully next week given I haven't forgotten something important.

Reconstruction of a burial cairn at Kildonan Museum on South Uist in the Outer Hebrides. The cairn was originally discovered at Kilphedder in 1998 and contained the burial of a Pictish woman who was interred in around 700 AD. 📸 My own. #TombTuesday #Picts #SouthUist
Pictish Warriors with axes and spears in a shieldwall
Since I designed my Picts with massed rank wargaming in mind one of the main priorities is making sure the melee infantry can form a convincing shieldwall.
I'll be working on a set with 2-handed spears and one with swords and that should cover most unarmoured melee infantry.

Next on the agenda is Pictish unarmoured spearmen, here's a WIP on the first model.

Photograph taken from near the top of Dunadd Hillfort, looking East along the River Add toward distant wooded hills. In the foreground, tussocky hillside drops away, exposed rocks peppering the scene. Immediately below can be seen the roof of a house, beyond which the river leads away from the viewer through green fields in which black cows graze. Above the hills, the sky is dominated by dark clouds portending a downpour.
View to the East from Dunadd Hillfort, Kilmartin Glen, Argyll and Bute. #HillfortsWednesday #Archaeology #Prehistoric #IronAge #Picts #Pictish #Scotland #Photography
