Museum Visitors there can explore a stunning, permanent exhibition that showcases the excavated treasures, featuring a meticulous, full-scale reconstruction of the princess's famous bed burial alongside her breathtaking gold jewelry. #AngloSaxon #EarlyMedieval #Archaeology

#WIPWednesday presents the final swordsman of the set.

Now there's just a boatload of details I need to figure out.

Bonus WIP: Rivets.

I modelled this helmet after the Benvie stone as well as Anglo-Saxon helmet finds in Wollaston and Coppergate (minus the cheek guards).

You didn't get a #WIP on Wednesday so you're getting it on Thursday.

Mainly the cloth details and shoes are on the to do list for swordsman #1, so I'm going to put him to the side for the time being and take care of the other 3.

Enjoying freetime in preHistoric village in Eindhoven. Cooking over open fire is such fun with our group of people.

Pictish art includes many figures with decorated tunic hems, though trying to replicate this while keeping it within the realm of actually paintable detail isn't the easiest.

I'll definitely need to check the test prints to see if it is too small to paint.

Another set of extras, this time its decorated #pictish shields, some of these are taken from the few examples on Pictish stonework, but others are based on Pictish art in general.

This is the broken shaft of a high cross at Old Kilcullen, Kildare.

Carved in Wicklow granite, it has some pretty unusual and enigmatic depictions.
