Just having a bit of fun with some medieval retinues that will be (and have been) used in our FFoL games  :)

Any mounted figures also will have a dismounted version.

First up is Sir Royce Cookee (pronounce it how you will  :D) and his band of indifferent men.






And then we have Sir Royce Puddean (pronounce it how you will  :D). Only the dismounted version so far but I’ve nearly finished the mounted one and have some men at arms ready to prime.



Figures are a mix of Crusader and old GW Bretonians. More to follow as and when  :)

Nicely done, that heraldry looks very crisp and bright.

Lovely job

I’ve been spending too much to watching GoT as whenever I now see a red/blue paint scheme I think it would look great with a white fish added  :D

Nice work James  :-* :-* :-*

Great choice of miniatures with the (mainly) Crusader retinue.

They paint up a treat. I think Crusader can sometimes be overlooked (the Mark Sims sculpts)- not the WoR/HYW)
