As regards the figures, several of the manufacturers back then based their figures on the WRG books - just look at some of the Minifigs 'strip' Renaissance figuresIan Duryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11319294059932082470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-7057222792653858342016-04-12T14:03:25.403-07:002016-04-12T14:03:25.403-07:00I recently bought a copy of ARMIES OF THE DARK AGE...I recently bought a copy of ARMIES OF THE DARK AGES 600-1066. I think you are correct.Looking at their illustrations of Viking it appears that Peter Laing used these pictures as the basis for his Viking figures. With the dogman figures I received some Peter Laing Viking figures that match the WRG illustration of the Berserk. It might make for an interesting posting to compare the illustrations to the Peter Laing figures.jhnptrqnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011208263053721255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6135416429133257747.post-22464958129386382532016-04-12T04:24:55.975-07:002016-04-12T04:24:55.975-07:00I think that figure would be based on an illustrat...I think that figure would be based on an illustration in the old WRG book armies of the dark ages published some time in the mid 70's. Illustration no 71 is of a man wearing a wolf pelt with tail and a wolf mask/hat. It resembles nothing so much as an Alsatian dog with human legs. It is called a Ulfhednar or berserker variation but I much prefer your appellation of Dogmen.<br /><br />Johnjohnpreecehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548014163096067684noreply@blogger.com
