as some people know, I'm crazy about medieval miniatures.  I begin this thread to share my last work on the subject.

This week i receive the new box of the Perry brothers : the Agincourt mounted Kinghts.

I open it and i begin to construct the first miniatures.




I choose also to try to enhance some of them :

I use for this one some bits from the Frostgrave sprue :



I use for this one a metal horse from the same range (I have to add the saddle)


I use for this one the arms from the Archer Box from the same range

Nice builds! And interesting to see the English archer arms on the mounted archers, I was a bit disappointed in the lack of options for the mounted bowmens' arms so that's a good idea to vary them!

How will you be painting them up?

yes, I think the perry box are really better if you buy them all from the same range.  You can multiply the options after.

I want to paint them as French knights for Agincourts / Orleans and English Marauders for the Agincourt campaign. The model are like this one i already made :

Hello,  I made some new batch of miniatures. A mate Give me some Old Glory Scottish Pikemen. Not enought for use them as pike. I choose to convert them as Parisian Militia.

I use bitz from a lots of kits : bretonnians, Perry WOTR, Frostgrave, Perry HYW range.

The unit not painted :

Excellent work on the Pavisiers! Are the Parisian blasons freehand?

Nice to see such a diverse range of miniature sources fitting so well together!

Really like the conversions. They look like they mean business and to echo happychappy, great freehand work on the shields.

Excellent work! I especially like Alençon, nice paintwork and I'm really fond of the pose the mini has too!

The red highlights on Beaumont's Houppellande are great too, very impressive!

Hi Poulppy,

Those Old glory Scottish pikemen, nicely painted btw, do you know whether they are the HYW set or the WOTR version?
