10mm Renaissance/Late Medievel Spanish commission for MeG Italian Wars

Army is finished! Hurrah! Loved doing these.

Mounted Generals including King








The last 5 bases of Jinettes (one was already done in that last batch).










Spanish camp






Jinettes, two units and 1 extra stand that starts the third unit!


These caused my Tudors a LOT of agro yesterday!


There's just something about them though!


One unit to show off...


Rear view




Heavy knights




Thunderous hooves


They really look the buisness


I had enough figures left over to make these, the Spanish switched to mixed pike and firearm units early, and these are useful markers to show that.


Yes, I overdid it on the flags again!




Two foot generals






Well done if you spotted the Pendraken Tudor range Earl of Suffolk here


They work well

 
Two mounted shooting units finished. 
Mounted crossbows.


5 on the front rank, four in the back so they can switch between 'loose' and 'skirmish' formations.








Mounted handgunners


Top view, these are also flexibles








 
Five more units for Lee's army.
Arquibusiers






Flank close up


Rear view


Crossbow unit




Quite liking these




Rear view


Big guns!


Grand battery


Duck!


Busy battery




Handgun skirmishers




Side view


Back view


Skirmishing crossbows




Top view




Five units looking mighty


 Sword and Buckler men (not entirely accurate for the period, but Lee loved the figures, and I enjoyed painting them).
Unit 1
Looking quite hard face on!




'Flexible' units, so less figures in the rear ranks so they can be swapped for the soliod front ranks when in terrain.


The all important trouser shot!


Second unit in loose formation


Love the effect they have


TROUSERS!


Both units deployed

 Takes the army up to 4 units now... Feels like a lot more with the double sized pike keils.

Lee's Spanish pikes below.

Next 120 figures are done.

Spanish pikes


Side view


Only 20 flags this time


Top view, armour is later black armour for Spanish so they can be used in Renaissance gaming too.


There are another 15 painted, just need to decide on their basing

Rear ranks, just becuase I like the figures

 

Landscherneckt mercanary pike Keil





80 figures, 40 flags!

That takes me to 4749 figures for the year, of which 2382 were for myself. Nice way to finish.

    1. I researched the flags that would have been used historically, cut and pasted them into word. Nothing more difficult than that.

The random miniatures in my lead pile thread

Hi all, As the months go on, I am finding more random stuff that does not fit into any catagory is creeping it's way up to the surface of my lead mountain. I decided a few years back, rather than just throw it back like one of Nobby's escaped socks, I would actually paint some of them.   Nemisis the Warlock - Khaos; Deadlock; the Warlock; the Shape of Things to Come; the Lord of the Flies; Holder of the Sword Sinister; The Death Bringer One of my all-time favourite 2000AD characters (2000AD is a British sci-fi based comic for those not from the fair shores of Blighty). "Creedo!" I got hold of two of these on Evil Bay, one uncommon (yellow base rim), one rare (red base rim), so I trashed the rare one (and kept the base elsewhere). This is a simple conversion of a heroclix figure,  Excessus, Sword Sinister replaced, base ripped off and new one sculpted, undercoated figure,  completly  repainted, flying stem attached. Sometimes, you just need a seri

Legion Imperialis 8mm - Emperor's Pointy Sticks extra marines.

 The rest of the club was doing it, so I had to do it!  Looking through the various Legions from the Horus Herasy, I decided... Nope. Don't like them. Stick to what you know. 'Stick 'Em In The Eye - It's the Emperor's Pointy Sticks' So, seven years after I painted the 'Emperor's Pointy Sticks' in 6mm, GW have released Legion Imperialis in 8mm. Marine booster pack painted up, group photos! Mixed bag About 100 extra points on table!  "Did I miss the photoshoot?" *FACEPALM* These are the ones I've been waiting for!    But before that, more tarantulas Top view - these are the 'offical GW ones' Leviathon seige dreadnoughts Front on Nearly 20mm these Heraldry on Back view Swear two of them are armed with tennis balls!
