59 Vikings and Archers painted in one month... 😥 This is such a nightmare. But I had no choice: in a few days, I will master a game of WFRP in which there will be a battle between my players (and their loyalist warriors) and rebels from their clan. And I wanted all minis used for this battle to be painted. There will be approximatively 130 or 140 miniatures on the battlefield.
This is a home-made campaign for WFRP 1st edition. The players come from a small village of Norsca. They have grown together and were forced to leave the village at some point (in fact, they were banned). Then, after several adventures, they saved the life of one of the High King (of Norsca) relatives and entered in the service of the monarch. After several successful missions across Norsca, in Albion and in Kislev, they were authorized to travel to Middenheim for winter (one of the players' mother and sister live in that city).
Now they are called back in Norsca by their High King who wants them to take control of their former clan. The Jarl of this clan has died without leaving heirs and the High King fears that the deceased Jarl's right-arm, the chief of the hirdmen, a vile and cruel man, will take the lead of the clan.
One of the players is supposed to defy the bad guy and to become Jarl after defeating him in a fight to death. But even though the player will be victorious, some of the hirdmen will not swear allegiance to him and will leave the town to hire warriors in order to fight the new Jarl and the loyalists.
I will certainly write a battle report of this battle between the rebels and the loyalists. But now, let's have a look at those 59 warriors painted in one month.
