Here are some that were very nicely painted by my French chum Lionel. I recently finished basing them, but only managed to photograph them today.

My slowly forming Burgundian army can be seen here:

So far I have only based infantry up, but I have cavalry in the pipeline.

Lovely Simon  :-*

As a (complete) aside, there's a very interesting discussion between Todd and Tobias about stakes, which took me by surprise as a barrier sharp end down, but was very interesting in this YouTube video- forward to 36:50:

And here are some arquebusiers to join them! For some inexplicable reason the basing came out particularly well on these.
