Had to look up the sketch that inspired the sculpts I picked up from Antediluvian Miniatures. Was fascinated by the odd helm being worn by the spearman and wondered how to paint it.Had to look up the sketch that inspired the sculpts I picked up from Antediluvian Miniatures.

I had always heard about galloglas / galloglass warriors from Ireland and the fact that they fought in the same styles and with the same gear for centuries. The Dürer Galloglass sketch has been one of the few sketches taken / survived of this fearsome, much sought after mercenary warrior class but much later in the period. Thankfully nothing about their look stands out as late medieval so they will give my retinue the Galwegian Irish Scots flavour I was hoping for.
