Jaeckel and the Lost Crusade - Month VI (188 points)

No pressure for the sixth month, as I have already painted my 1000 points. So, I came back to my initial plan (meaning before introducing the cannon-bell and its crew), and painted the bunch of beggars and fanatics I had prepared last December: the infamous Dirty Eight.

A golden opportunity to finally use some of the ugliest miniatures of my Citadel pile: the C46 villagers (I know I know, nobody forced me to buy them). Anyway...

Let's start with two modest conversions, to represent the standard bearer and the musician. You'll recognize the usual bits of the flagellant plastic sprues.

MM62 - CZ6

C46 - Bolg

Then the beggars:

C46 - Beggar

C46 - Wiggle

C46 - Beggar

C46 - Leper

And finally two fanatics (allowing me to count these poor guys as flagellants):

F2 - Flagellant

F2 - Fanatic

Beware the Dirty Eight!

 I have also found some time to paint a couple of monks to strengthen the procession:

C3 - Wild Angus

C46 - Monk

While preparing my move and rummaging in my storage boxes, I found an old Harlequin model. I have glued a few candles on top of it, and tadaa! let's say he bears the army standard...
