WIP

More painting practice (not painted yet, ironically.), I wanted to do a bad-ass Celtic warrior, so I scribbled some poses and picked one, and I thought she looked cool but she was just kind of standing there.  So I posed her out better and gave her some more historically accurate gear.  Going for early 0 - 300 AD look.  After Romans showed up, before the middle ages.  Not a lot of records survive from the era, and reference on Pinterest is beautiful but improbable.  Broke out my reference books and found that simple tunics / belts / sandals were the way to go.  Threw on a big shield and some light leather armour and she's ready for  actual paint. Maybe get reference for the inside of a shield.  And woad.  Maybe some torcs.

I think.
