Isles Gallowglass
« on: May 21, 2020, 04:17:09 PM »
Greetings all. Hope everyone is keeping well at the moment.

I have just finished a group of Isles Gallowglass from Antediluvian, including command. Thoroughly enjoyed these. 

Also below my first finished, based and trayed pike unit. I had painted these previously but have since added a few more as well as based them all. They were a good start but I am still looking for a different and simpler converting alternative for my second unit, or failing that just hope and pray that tje Perrys will put out some Irish 16th Century pike ???

Anyway, here they are.

Lovely work  :-*

I seriously doubt that the Perry's will produce any 16th C Irish Pike as their range reaches only to Stoke Field in 1487.

Still, they are full of surprises so you never know :)

Their WotR range only goes up to Stoke Field, but their Italian Wars range can extend past 1500.  Both of the Twins are into Tudor re-enactment and have been photographed in early Henry VIII "uniform" (the short-sleeved white smock with green trim and red cross), so I wouldn't rule out later figures for England/Scotland/Ireland.

Nice pike block, by the way.  I never think they look right unless they have at least three ranks in them!

No plan survives first contact with the dice.

I think it will stretch up to 1495 and Fornovo but not very much further TBH.
