28mm Vikings

 Vikings from gripping beast, I did these guys a while ago and forgot to post the pics, I have done the saxons since and to be honest there is little difference, but what would one expect.
 I love the figures, I like them more than the saxons as you get much more of a feel of realisum for the poses than in the saxon box.

Crimean war Russian

 These are from Itrregular miniatures alma battle pack which contains 3 armies, this is the russian side.
 In the pack you get 8 Regiments of infantry in spiked helmet, 5 regiments in round hat, 1 regiment of marines, 2 skirmishing regiments, 6 cannon and limbers and 5 generals.
The guy I did these for wanted them based to the rules that come with the army 'Warring Empires' as a rule system the rules arnt all that bad.  I based them to the rules meaning you get 3 strips to a regiment, if you based them 2 to a strip you could get alot more bases to the army but its down to the player to decide.

Overall I quite like the battlepack and certainly good value for your money.

Crimean War French

 The crimean war french in the Alma Battlepack are much the same as the british withy a few small differences.
 With the french contingent in the pack you get 3 cannon, 3 skirmish regiments 6 Foot Regiments, 1 Zouave regiment and 4 generals

Crimean War British

 
I recently got the Crimean war Alma Battlepack from Irregular miniatures, in it you get 3 armies, russian, british and french. These are the british part of the pack.
 In the pack you get 6 guns with limbers, 10 regiments of line infantry, 5 light infantry regiments, 6 generals.

28mm Saxons

 These guys are from gripping beast and much the same as their vikings from the same range, in fact on the sprue there is little difference in figure. 
 there are 44 figs in  the box and 1 command of 3 included in that, the commander has a cloak which looks ok, and a standard and horn.  All easy to put together.
 the box fully assembled and painted.
