It rattles the innards- in a good way. <br /><br />as to a piper, the next musician is going to be a horn player based upon the Holbein woodcut. <br /><br />Piper may be a stretch goal though! <br />Cheers<br />ThsFoss1066https://www.blogger.com/profile/05532255411392601854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630772564305914584.post-25890583986808620302017-02-10T15:21:29.647-08:002017-02-10T15:21:29.647-08:00That idea is bizarre but fantastic!

I always wondered at the HG being a peasants instrument, as they are incredibly complex and prone to changes in humidity and temperature.....I guess an out of tune gurdy sounds more frightening for the undead army to march to. Let's have a bagpiper next :) The pikemen look great as well.... I am really excited by this project!Springinsfeldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088330681756351208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-630772564305914584.post-6937573015036025332017-02-10T07:28:26.992-08:002017-02-10T07:28:26.992-08:00Cheers Ubique Matt- did you listen to the Youtube ...Cheers Ubique Matt- did you listen to the Youtube piece? haunting and beautiful.
