Title: 16th C. Polish
Post by: Leon on 24 December 2014, 03:49:54 AM
Our new intern has been busy working on these in between the shows and sweeping the floor, and he's done a cracking job on them!  He's got the Ottoman Turks next in the painting queue, so keep an eye out for those as well.

They can all be found on the website here: http://www.pendraken.co.uk/Renaissance-c12/16th17th-C-Polish-sc42/ (http://www.pendraken.co.uk/Renaissance-c12/16th17th-C-Polish-sc42/) and here's a preview as well:

He might just be worth keeping on if his brush work on the floors is as neat  ;) ;D

Very nice. Great to see more pictures and especially such nicely painted ones

For some reason the thumb nails on the website have come out very dark, don't know if you can tweak the image settings on these?

The P1-P4 thumbnails were a little darker than the others, so I've updated those now.

I envisage copies of that Polish wargames rule book flying off the shelves, but the armies in use being 10mm. Is Szymon unwittingly undermining the Polish economy?

And UKIP want to throw them out and replace them with the teabreak every 20 mjnutes English. What a shame the Poles didn't have longships in the C5th.

These are definitely on the list of armies to paint.   :)

Come on Syzmon, get the Turks done now so that we can drool over them as well ! 

{Now what about some Cossacks, and Moscovites, and .....................   ;)  }

Wouldn't you like to try your talents painting what Phil Barker calls the most colourful army of all?

I think it might be the Renaissance Turks, although Landsknechts and Samurai would give them a run for their money.

Swiss Pikemen obviously. They'd out-sparkle Gay Pride any day - which is why they guard the Pope.

Post by: Leman on 28 January 2015, 04:16:48 PM
I thiunk Lansknechts would even outshine the Swiss. Still think it's Aztecs though, given FK's penchant for pre-Colombian South and Central America/

Fine, if you like blue and yellow stripes. Actually, they don't carry pikes. The one I saw at St Peter's was wearing an automatic pistol.
