For Sale: 28mm Vikings

SOLD

This is a painted 28mm Viking army I have for sale. I painted it in late spring/early summer 2026 and it has never been used. The miniatures are mainly Wargames Foundry, with a some Crusader and Artizan in the Bondi and Archers. Foundry Vikings are full of character and some of my favorite miniatures to paint. There are a total of 54 foot miniatures and I am asking for $310 including shipping in the US.

Pictures were taken at sunset on a warm summer day, just right for pillaging.

Saga: Viking Army #2

SOLD

This is the second of two different painted Viking 28mm armies I have for sale.  It has never been used in a game.  It is 7 points for Saga.  The Vikings are in the appropriately-named Saga Age of Vikings book.  The miniatures are a mixture of Wargames Foundry, Crusader and Gripping Beast.  Foundry Vikings are full of character and some of my favorite miniatures to paint.  The shields are mostly decals from LBMS with some hand-painted.  The warlords and one of the warrior units are from Crusader.  

There are a total of 47 foot miniatures and I am asking $282.  I also have Saxon and Romano-British armies for sale.

They will be for sale at Historicon on July 21-24, 2022.  I will be in the flea market on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.  I have comments on this post moderated so if you are interested you can give me your contact details through a comment without it posting publicly.

28mm Vikings & Viking Ship Grave

In between big projects I often work on a few figures, a small unit or a piece of terrain for an old army.  Recently I made some additions to my 28mm Viking army that I use for SAGA.

I normally have a standard for each SAGA army I have.  Even though I don't often use them as banner in game terms, I think they look nice and add character to each army.  When I originally painted my Vikings, none of the miniatures was in the right position to hold a spear upright.  I've been on the lookout for a suitable miniature ever since.  I finally bought one by Gripping Beast at Historicon 2018 from Badger Games.  It came with a LBMS banner.  I think he looks suitably stern to be a veteran companion of the Viking leader.

 

 

The 2nd edition of SAGA allows a unit of 6 shieldmaidens.  Since I already had 4 that I painted back in 2017, why not get 2 more?    I still needed a leader and a standardbearer.  I ordered them from Brother Vinni in 2018 during one of their sales.  They are made of resin with separate arms that attached easily with superglue.  The standard was harder to attach.  The lower section was part of the arm piece, with the upper section including the banner was separate.  It was too thin to pin, but after trimming some off the lower section I was able to get it to hold together with superglue.  It appears to be a strong join now.  The top section is available separately if you need a new banner.

The two new miniatures:

 

 The whole unit ready for battle:

Also recently completed is a Viking ship grave from Acheson Creations.  Cast in resin, my friend Mike bought it for me at a convention and mailed it to me.   I was pleased that when I googled 'Viking Ship Grave' the images were very similar.  The burial site was surrounded by stone slabs in the shape of a ship.  After a quick run though tthe dishwasher to remove the mold residue I spray primed it black.  After that all it took were a few layers of drybrushing.  I added some static grass, shrubs and flowers and voila.  It is a good-sized terrain feature and will give my Vikings something to defend.
