WIP

Just a WIP shot of some pikemen.  I tried to push my meager GS skills a bit further and copy some of the helmets and clothing from a few contemporary illustrations.  I have come to find the original Perry mercenary set a bit too generic for my purposes, and I hope these additions will 'Germanize' the look a bit.


Also, finished another crossbowman.  This was of course mainly an excuse to paint another pavise :)


This pavise is inspired by a Bohemian design featuring Venus.   

More to follow soon, I hope.

On Parade

I am pleased to report that the English portion of the army is "finished."







Obligatory Flag Shot

Billmen
Men-at-arms

Archers

Looking ahead, I might (read: will) add some scurrers and a few more skirmishers, but speaking broadly one third of the army is finished.  Now to polish off the Germans (only a few more to go) and then tackle the Irish, most of whom will have to wait until the Perrys release the plastic French set.
