Showcase Gallery: Norsca

Here is my Norsca army which I started collecting around 2014, and then painted between October 2020 to October 2021. I went with a blue-grey and white colour scheme for the clothes and shields, and pale skin and blonde hair to add some contrast vs the otherwise dark and brown colours. Not the most eye-catching colour scheme, but it's suitable for a horde of angry hairy Vikings!
