Lovely stuff. Nice paint job and great to see a conversion which is so original.

Thank you for the kind comments everyone =)

Hi Charlie i will dig out my paints tomorrow and let you know which colour it was. The horses are TAG, they do need some conversion to make the saddle look more medieval. When i do some more i hope to greatly improve my scuplting. Good thing about them is you can get away with just adding green stuff straight to the existing saddle instead of having to chop bits of the horse first. I found them harder to paint then the Perry plastic horses and i am not as happy with how they have come out but that is a fault with my painting style rather than the models. I used "Dragon Nag Standing 1" and "Dragoon Nag Standing 2".

Next up hope to do some more on my buildings, need to make a large fortified Barn complex and finish my homestead. That will probably be it building wise unless the Hudson and Allen buildings become available in the UK. Got so many ideas to fill the board up with terrain pieces but no hope of finishing them in the timescale.

Figure wise need to paint 

-Burgundian wagon supply convoy with escort (partly made up with mounted crossbowmen
-Supply depot garrison
-Ambushing Swiss and a small pike block
-Burgundian knights relief force

Might try and write out a detailed list of stuff to be done sometime so can help me keep track of tasks and get it all out my head lol

Here is a WIP of the terrain pieces

Very cool!

Absolutely fantastic painting on those horse-holders,   :-* :-* :-*

And the terrain pieces look good as wip. Can't wait to see more of this project.
