Robert Baratheon Future King of the Seven Kingdoms of Westeros

 My Robert the Future King of Westeros is complete. Some of the guys at my club at starting to get into the idea of the playing A Song of Fire and Ice Saga games. I sold all the first figures i painted as i wasn't 100% happy with them and im now going to use only Claymore castings figures for my army. This is the Claymore castings Percy Hotspur figure with the Hammer head and Antlers coming from Games Workshop Bretonians.

I have a number of the figures on the table about 60% painted so hopefully i have something to show soon. 

My focus is on the story prior to the books and before Robert became King. For me it has better battles and better heroes. I can also get Robert and Ned on the field of battle against the Dragon lovers :)

Robert Baratheon

Like many i have interest in Game of Thrones and i love the books. So with this i have started a new project (opps) and it isn't based on Game of Throne but based on the battles prior to which the books and TV series are set. I want to do Roberts Rebellion or The War of the Usurper if you are a Targaryen.

Some great details of the Rebellion here http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Robert%27s_Rebellion

I'll be building forces for the housesHouse Baratheon,House Stark,House Arryn and House Tully  and looking to use Dux Britannium and maybe Saga for the rules.

 I have started painting some of the Fireforge Sergeants up as Baratheon soldiers. I picked up more of the boxes along with Claymore Castings figures at Claymore on Saturday so i hope to start getting on with the project. I think ill use the War of the Roses box sets as well to give me differences in the armour styles etc.

I also got the Percy figure from Claymore Castings and he will be my Robert Baratheon. I have made some modifications to him as well mush to the disappointment of David Imrie haha. The antlers are from a Bretonnian Knight from Games Workshop. I removed the sword and replaced it with a Claymore Castings Warhammer and added some greenstuff to make it bigger. Not sure if im happy about it though as sculpting isn't my best talent ha.
