Perry 1st Crusade Armenians Question
« on: June 17, 2017, 12:52:19 PM »
Would anybody be able to tell me if the Armenians that Perry miniatures sculpted to go along with their 1st Crusade minis are sculpted with separate shields? I've assembled quite a few of their crusaders, which certainly have separate shields, but I can't tell from any available photos whether the same is the case for the Armenian units, or whether the riders are single piece sculpts.

The miniatures I'm thinking of are these...

I have the command blister; I am 90% certain that the shields are cast on. I painted them years ago so my memory isn't ... sharp. ::)

edit: I just dug them put and had a look- now I am %99.9 certain they are cast on. :D

all perry sculpts have separate shields, spears/ lances and horses and riders so 4 pieces to stick together with the photos you have shown, as i have bought many of them recently, the figure/ rider has a small piece of metal sticking out for pushing the shield onto

The Perrys were kind enough to get back to me and they've informed me that the Armenians in the crusades range indeed have their shields cast attached to them.

Except when they don't.  The Armenian foot have cast on shields.
