Hi guys,
I'm after pics of the pikemen in felt hats- painted, unpainted, or whatever, just a good front-on shot.
Cheers!
Hi,
You might find these sits useful - absolutely heaps of uniform information :

I would also suggest the Osprey Poltava book by Angus Konstam :

(Usefully, this page has some uniform examples you can see.)

Think you're right but a lovely resource nonetheless; perhaps a moderator (not Matron, a decent one :D ) could jiggle things around a bit ;)

These are the Russian pikes in felt hats, Matt.

They are the ones on the left. They are old-style figures, but fairly easy to paint.
They're superb Herts, cracking job :-bd
Indeed they are, Ray !!
Excellent !
Cheers - Phil
Top work Ray!
Very nice work! :)
Are the flags from Pendraken?

Hertsblue - Absolutely superb figures. The whole scene works so well together.

No, I draw my own flags using Drawplus and print them off on a little laser printer. Ridiculously simple when you get the hang of it.
Thanks all, especially Hertsblue.
Those are just about what I'm looking for
