Green Grows The Wood

Ha! I wasn't sure for a while today that I'd manage to do it, but I sat down and got the Greenwood men finished. I'm quite pleased with them, although the metal studs on the brigandine worn by one of the halberdiers proved a bit of a pain and don't look quite right (primarily because I didn't go through the rigamarole of painting the ones on the yellow half black first).

The helmet on the left-hand billman has a little tree painted on it which I like the look of. The billman on the right doesn't have a tree, because the brigandine doesn't really suit one...

The yellow is because they are a house linked to Baratheon, the black because it looks good next to yellow

Poor old Arnold. He probably doesn't deserve that nickname, but he knows what he did

The metal studs on the yellow really don't stand out - I might have to go back in and fix that one day

With that, I just have to do the Merryweather men next, and then that's the whole Ruckus band done and I can move onto the Lannister force (or the commissions).
