28mm Italian Wars Gendarme
« on: August 17, 2018, 04:17:05 PM »

Evening everyone,

The latest addition to the fledgling Italian Wars Project has achieved "ready for gaming" status. Here is my first Unit of Gendarme / Men at Arms.

Full details and extra pics t'blog post, the figures are from the Perrys Miniatures plastic box set Mounted Men at Arms set, which is 1450-1500 but I am going for an early Papal Army so chuck in a few plumes and I'm happy !

Right pain to paint with the individual armour colours and designs but when I have a big chunk of them it will be worth it.

Regards Ken

Very nice miniatures. I like the way you have heavied them up. I have three boxes my self but have made them all with unarmored horses. I think I will have to get some more and make some extra heavy cavalry as well.

Very well done


Erik
