Completed Scots Units 1388

First up Sir Thomas Erskine of Alloa. This unit will line up alongside Sir John Swinton's to create another Schiltron.

 






Next John Dunbar, Earl of Moray and George Dunbar, Earl of March forming another Scot Schiltron.











That completes the main units I was hoping to do before Christmas.

I'm currently working on some figs to comprise the Douglas stand/ unit but I'm in no hurry to complete that - it will be done at an 'as and when' pace as I intend to enjoy the Christmas festivities to the full!!

Here's a few I've done already. These will 'bulk out' the Douglas and Douglas Standard Bearer figures who will be centre stage.




The Knight (second left) is Sir John Lindsey of Dunford who played an important role around the Douglas command so he will be included here - more details on this later (when I get my facts correct.)

All figs are from Claymore Castings.
Fantastic flags from Flags of War.

Thanks for all your previous comments on my work - they are warmly recieved and much appreciated.

Scots 'Schiltron' at Otterburn

Here is the completed unit of Scots. This unit represents Drummond and Montgomery at Otterburn 1388.

Again, I can add to this unit to make it more dramatic as and when. My first objective is to get the main units completed first!









A few close-ups of the individual stands:







 
Figures from 'Claymore Castings.' Great flags from 'Flags of War.'

Next up (hopefully) is the schiltron for the Earl of March and Earl of Moray.

Well underway are the next batch of Scots - I've completed the back row of the Drummond and Montgomery unit and will post the completed unit soon. This will be a 6 base unit. Flags and personalities in the front row!
