Thanks folks, much appreciated  :)

With hindsight, I am feeeling that the tower castellations are too chunky (they are twice as deep as elsewhere), so might well carve them back a bit.

In the meantime, I’ve completed 11 more minis for the Yellow & Blues force. I’ve had to fiddle with the lighting a bit, but this group comprises 2 Knights (closed helms) and a Serjeant (open helm) all of which are conversions, plus  4 more spears and 4 bows.



In the next image (lighting not fiddled with!) the newest minis have been added to the combined Y&B force, which now stands at 24. There’s also one mounted alternate, though I have alternates for all the Knights and Serjeants in the lead pile.



Next set of minis will be a similar expansion to the Green & Reds.

Many thanks, splendid fellows that you are  :D

You do know you only need six though don't you  ;)

Ah, but.....

With a (draft) campaign ladder including the following, I shall need more than 6!



If anyone is interested, the background  of the  campaign is that the ‘Barons’ War’ is being used as an opportunity to settle local, deep-seated ill-feeling.

Ha ha ...... ha  :D

That, is actually merely a typed out table, no spreadsheeting was required.  ;)

However, there is a spreadsheet to manage the various minis and which Retinue they go into, to result in 2 equally balanced forces:



By the by, I’m presently on 59 of 137 minis painted.

You two are hilarious!

Just think, if you painted more you could switch to a fresh Retinue with a whole new set of colours. How pretty  would  that be?!  ;) :D
