Troops on Parade - 28mm Italian Wars Papal Army

Hi fellow gamers,

The Italian Wars Project has reached a ready to game stage and is looking like a proper army now, although it won't be the end of the collection it will certainly be the last big burst of it. Maybe now I can concentrate on the Crusades units I have primed (stop laughing at the back).

Yarkshire TV have even done a feature length documentary on the Project avaliable in shaky cam sponsored by Twinings Tea and Tunnocks Biscuits, link on the blog.

Really enjoyed putting this lot together, hope to have many great games with them.

Regards Ken
The Yarkshire Gamer

The pics above look fantastic  :-* :-* :-*   but the link to your blog page seems to be corrupted. I'd love to see the whole shebang.

Very impressive!!  Do you need a few more pike ? ;-)

The blog link works for me, and there are lots of more good photos there.

Lovely work Ken!
One of my favourite projects over the Challenge.  The full array is really impressive.

Thanks for the link.  Your army is very impressive and will be an inspiration for me as I dip my toe into this period.  I like the mix of plastic and metal figures and will be considering some of the same especially light cavalry and light troops.
