Lovely figures and great looking project,are you priming in khaki or a different colour?
Best Iain

The completed Gendarmes are the two last units in my Landsknecht army. However, I'm going to add in a pair of guns as an option to replace the mounted crossbowmen if desired and some commanders in case I want to play the Irregular Wars rules.

Excellent additions - and well done on getting the first force completed (well except the extras, but there are always extras!)

A very colourful looking force. Yet coherent too

"I am planning to produce about four (maybe more) armies to play Neil Thomas' One Hour Wargames. These armies consist of six elements drawn from a pool of ten so I shall be assembling and painting all ten options (and some extras, more on those later)."

Really love this overall idea for the project, matakishi, as well as how nicely the army came together.

Looking forward to how it all develops!
Focused on 6mm pike and shot and 28mm Frostgrave

So, with the addition of the optional artillery and commanders, the Landsknechts are done.

Top job Paul.
Takes me back to the days of ‘Battle’ magazine, and their photo spreads of Bill Brewer’s Hinchliffe landsknechts  :-*

Right, with the Landsknechts complete, it's on to the Aztecs!
To begin, some warbands of novice warriors




and a smattering of scenery



I've started a video log of the project which I'm expecting to take me most of this coming year.
