Just a brief entry to show you my rendering of Footsore's Maredudd ab Owain, a Welsh king of the C10th, who is posed on a bit of Welsh slate for appearance's sake. He will stand as a command figure alternative in Hail Caesar games or as a champion in any Mudgard games in which we might use the Welsh. On the death of his father Owain in AD 988 he became king of Dyfed, Ceredigion, Brycheiniog, Gwynedd and Powys. He most probably died in AD 999. Not a great deal more to say about him really ~
Splendid rendered with a nice contrast between himself and the ranks. The added Welsh slate is a clever touch.
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil, especially for endorsing the slate idea.
DeleteI love it! A very characterful miniature, which you've painted and based superbly.
ReplyDeleteThanks Giles for such a ringing endorsement of my modest effort. Your support is always welcomed.
DeleteReally fine work there David!

Thank you as ever Christopher, your encouragement is always appreciated.
DeleteLovely figure and a really nice paint job on him and the basing is quite superb, really well done.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Donnie for such glowing comments.
DeleteFine work as always David, with a very nice colour scheme and a neat idea to use some Welsh slate on the base:).
ReplyDeleteThank you SteveJ, you are always so positive in your comments.
DeleteIs he slated to be a successful general or will he just get slated for his performance? I'll get my coat.
ReplyDeleteNice addition.
Stephen
Who knows, except the dice gods perhaps?
DeleteNice work David I think I might look out for one of those figures when I’m next at a show 🤔
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Matt. Do Footsore do shows? Don't recall them myself.
DeleteLovely Brushwork there, and a splendid character! Very Welsh-like! Excellent work, well done!
