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

They look great for the period - not too many morions, little in the way of puffling pants etc that I can see.

That's one way to avoid needing to paint the edges of the the flags ;)

It looks as though the red corners have been done though.

They are very good but for my taste there is too much flag. It diminishes the prominence of the soldiers.

I suspect that Will used a conteporary engraving to base them on.

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

Very good, I was actually just eyeing those figures earlier wondering if I should do some conquistador units with them. They look well.
