Looks amazing!  Personally, I can imagine the figure and base in a misty Irish/Scottish/wherever this Celt is from scene.

Fine work as always.  I love the ancients.  I'd love some from the time of Alfred the Great seeing as I'm into the Saxon Chronicles right now.

Fantastic! Been watching this one from the beginning. I love it. He looks so alive. I picture him looking down over another army in the early morning with a little fog and white puffs of breath coming from his nose.

Can you recomend any books or websites that you learned from? Your work makes me wanna murder a figure or two.

Thanks, guys.

KC, i've not really used or read anyone's book, but you may like to try out somethin' from Bill Horan, he is on your side of the pond and is quite a well known and respected modeller and figure painter, and he has untold amount of books on the market, dealin' with all aspects of this craft.
Jus' do a search on his name.
