With the final addition of Devon the Battle is complete. First image shows grouped as contingents, while others as bowmen to the fore. That’s five roughly equal sized battles completed. Three Yorkist and two Lancastrian. Already got Roos contingent made up and undercoated so getting closer. Cheers all.

VERY impressive, i know how much detail the Perry figs have and I wonder how you do they all so quickly.
I did notice one interesting conversion in the rear rank, using the pike arms to make a bill man hold his bill horizontal at chest height. Must try that one out.

I join the Captain in a wholehearted chorus of approval

Fab stuff.

Thanks for all the positives gents, very much appreciated. I am getting to the point where I paint these on autopilot, which is fine as it is a great way to switch off from the rat race. Once you have painted 400+ longbowmen the brush seems to know its own way about, while my brain engages with the latest audiobook offering (currently The Winter King).

Confession time now. I have never played a wargame in my life. I've been painting soldiers since I was eight but they have never, ever been used in anger. But, I have promised myself that once this collection is finished (hopefully this year) I shall be appealing to the great and good of this forum for assistance in righting that wrong.

Cheers

Really impressive and as I've said before, it's how I would expect them to look... a nice deep body of men. Certainly looks better than the typical four-deep, five wide units you tend to see.

Well done!

Hello LR

I have planned for just over 900 figures. So far I have about 780 painted and based as in the pictures. I started collecting them the day the Perrys released the range. And I haven't stopped since! Cheers.

We shall have to sort that out

I can see a monster LAF WOTR game coming up somewhere in Central England in the not too distant future!

Somewhere near Bosworth, perhaps?

If we combine our arms we may need the actual battlefield to host. Where was it again?

Looking at these fantastic figures, and those of Captain Blood, Silent Invader et al, I have to say what amazing standards of painting the Perry's WotR figure range has provided us with to enthuse over and look at in awe. Truly inspirational. Thank you one and all for sharing.
