Really excellent work. I'm very impressed (and rather envious, because I have to pay someone else to do this sort of thing).

Thanks chaps :)

Can't wait to see Lady Lucinda's troops in colour.  ;D

The rest of the troop is nearly done, but meanwhile, here is the ravishing Lady Lucinda ;)

It's a Statuesque head on a TAG body and mount.

The dashing canine companion is one of a pair of otterhounds produced by Dags himself. (I hope, Jon, I've done him - or her - justice!)









And here's the Lady Lucinda with her brother, the swashbuckling Sir Clifton Knightley. They ride side-by-side into battle against the perfidious Roundheads...

He's a TAG TYW colonel, but mounted on what was Montrose's dramatic steed from Warlord Games.
(As mentioned before, I think the original horse sculpt may be a licensed eBob model, but I could have that wrong... )










The rest of Knightley's buccaneering troop of Cavalier horse will be along in a day or two, once I've finished the last one :)

I have struggled trying to decide what regiments to collect for Pikeman's Lament (I'm attempting to collect both teams) and I think you have a wonderful idea - fictionalising units

One I have thought of is "Sir Reginald Dwight's Dragoons" (family motto "I still standeth")

Very nice. Like you, I think that is an Ebob horse.

Superb job on Lady Lucinda and her brother. The otterhound is a lovely touch, as is the purple coats of her troop. 
Luscious.  :-* :-* :-* :-*

Spot on, he’s going to appearing in my collection of 1970s inspired medieval knights.
You could have the Royalist Sir Michael of Bolton with a luxurious head of flowing hair.  ;)
