Post Your Castle Army Here!

[Viriatus]

After seeing some pages in this thread, there is some huge armies. Do you buy individual minifigs, or in bulk quantities?

I'm trying to build a small army, but I have search and bought small quantities in many different places.

Another update. Prince Imrahil and Dol Amroth knights. Helmets used only until something closer to real ones show up.

I do have to chuckle about the "close to real ones

Great figs sahidko!
I just want to comment if you want to add more authenticity to your forces, make sure Imrahil does not have a beard.

Thanks! I haven't really researched Imrahil's look. :)

Hi everyone,

Im 28 years old and i'm from Belgium. I recently got into LEGO again after going to my parents house and looking at my old lego sets (90's)

I started looking around on the internet and i found this topic. Was i amazed by the number of adults that are collecting these beautiful armies. So i started scaveging some local 2nd hand markets. And i decided to start collecting some black falcons. This is what i got so far. I don't think i will ever have enough :-(

Welcome! Nice little army, it's not that big but it would be sufficient for guarding a small mountain keep.

You don't need a big army to be impressive. Love the Black Falcons!

Hello!

I like your Black Falcons too! And how i love those helmets on the archers!

That is a good number, you can put them all in one castle

[Exetrius]

I got black Vladek helmets in the mail last Friday, so I was able to complete my unit of the Zotharian (GoH) military: 

The structure, from front to back:

• General of the Zotharian army
• Commander of the First Division (right), Commander of the Second Division (left)
• 4 veteran swordsmen, 1 messenger
• 12 regular swordsmen  

General Zeruko Urima.

All hierarchical levels share the same insignia. (Ninjago Cole all the way! ) 

I think that I have enough soldiers for now, it's sufficient to man a small fortress, have a medium sized battle scene, or do a military ceremony.

[Alfadas]

Saw them on Flickr the other day, very awesome! The figs look so cool!

[MaasEffekt]

@Exetrius: I like your army very much! Ninjago offers some beautiful torsos and stuff!

Which face did you use for your general's head?

What torso is that on the guy with the envelope?

I love that type of helmet (which has the golden horns here).

Thanks, guys! 

The general has the head of Psyclone, from Ultra agents: http://brickset.com/minifigs/uagt008/Psyclone-with-Parachute-Backpack-and-Attachments

The messenger's torso is from Stone Army Cole (black arms swapped for gunmetal grey ones): http://brickset.com/sets/5004393-1/Cole

And yes, the Dragon Knights helmet is a great piece!

hey guys :)

that's not really something like an army, but here are some of my new dragoons cavalry ...

[Tezclatipoca]

Hello,

Here is my new army of Crusaders remade at the taste of our days.

Better weapons for hallberds guards and better heads for everybody ! And I made a Royal family to give the knights someone to defend.

Here is all the army around the Royal family :

The Royal Family :

Marksmen :

Hallberds guards :

Prison guards :

Swordsmen :

The king riding with his knights :

I hope you'll like them.

I like the prints of your minifigures, they are in a very good state!
 

But i do prefer older weapons. I do not like the golden weapons for medieval knights.  (but everyone has his own view of things ofcourse!)

 

Good luck on the battlefield. Let's hope they can save the royal family.

Thank you for your comment.

I tryed to preserve the prints very soon in my childhood, so many of my old 80's castle minifigs are well preserved.

Your weapon taste is good too. I didn't change so much weapons though...

Thank you again. The will be part of a bigger project I am building, so, no battlefield but a good old castle to defend !

[MaasEffekt]

@FaladrinThat is a very nice army! Looking great!

Personally, I'm quite a fan of a diverse, powerful few, instead of a uniform mass. The middle one is especially unique.

The enchantress in blue is really nice, I'm very surprised how well the combo between new and old works here! 

[SerenityInFire]

I'm probably the only one building up an army of skeletons.
