Honour was in quite short supply back in 15th Century England. The Stanleys stand out because they were prominent personalities. I would be interested to see who anyone sees as being 'honourable' in this period.

Case in point - Buckingham's Rebellion. The bulk of rebels involved were all former adherents and supporters of Edward IV, rather than Lancastrians, so were mainly Yorkists turning against a Yorkist King, who himself had usurped his nephews to gain the throne. Actual Lancastrian involvement was minimal.

Hi Folks,

I have another update for you. This time some W.I.P. I am working on some Breton mercenaries who were employed in Tudor's army. I have also included some pictures of some Men-At-Arms in progress with an accompanying spiel on how I paint them.



That's all for now, but I will have another post for tomorrow featuring the Earl of Oxford.

Cheers,

Richard

Hi folks,

this will be the last update for a little while whilst I prepare to move house, complete with workshop. Unfortunately any painting I do in the near future will be house painting.

However I present Oxford's retinue! If you go to the blog site you can find out about Richard III nemesis! The picture shows the width and depth of a single contingent , it's approximately 200mm wide x 100mm deep. The acrylic bases were made by that excellent fellow James, from Oshiro Model Terrain.

You're keeping dubious company there with that James fellow.  ;)

Good luck with the move and look forwards to more when you're settled.  :)
