Spectacular stuff ! Highly impressed.
-
Very nice indeed.

Not a period of interest for me but Blue Moon is ever and again astonishing in the sheer variety - not only of ranges but of poses within ranges. Nice paint jobs.

Looking very good.
One thing, if I may, the Italians were well known for their brightly painted lances which after Fornovo the French noted as, and forgive any misquote as it's from memory, "brightly painted, hollow and useless".
-
Very nice sculpts and outstanding paintjob! The flags are superb! You are making a great collection!
Please keep posting!
-
Those look amazing! The shield transfers are really very nice!

Wonderful painting and those transfers just make the unit go pop. :-*
