I have been working on my Easterling army for some time, but it's been hard to motivate myself to get it done. Here are some of the latest figures I've painted for it back in January (which doesn't seem that long ago to me for some reason!):

I have more pictures on my site in my Men of the East Gallery.

Image

Here they are with some figures I painted back in 2005; typically I would repaint these old figs, but I decided not to bother since they add flavour and they are painted well enough for now. When I paint all of my unpainted figs, maybe I'll come back and repaint ;)

Image

I'll update this thread as I paint more :)

Thanks,
n.

Could you describe how you painted the more recent ones? They're really good and I'd like to paint mine like that.

You-you're the "Alternative Knights of Dol Amroth" guy! :shock: I didn't know you were still painting and whatnot. I must say, the Easterlings are great but those Perry Normans you did up as Knights of Dol Amroth are still some of my favourites ever.

Great looking Easterlings - I wish we had seen more of them in TT and RotK as they are great looking warriors and quite distinct from the western/anglo-saxon-viking-medieval Europe styles seen in many of the other combatants.
