I have finally completed the first two skirmish units of Irish Shotte for the Elizabethan Ireland project, details and photos on the blog for those interested.

Cheers Donnie, there is just somethign about the clash of cultures in Elizabethan Ireland that attracts me. Swashbuckling Errol Flyn on one side and axe weidling Gallwglass akin to Vikings on the other. Whats not to love?
