Raglan's Hundred Years War
« on: January 27, 2022, 09:41:10 PM »
This is a brand new project for 2022, using the fantastic 28mm ranges from Claymore Castings, Perry Miniatures, Front Rank and Footsore Miniatures. The plan is to showcase the collection and feature battle reports of the games as we play them.

English Longbowmen. This unit is a mix and match of the brilliant Claymore Casting and Perry Miniature ranges.

English Longbowmen from Evesham. You can tell they are from Evesham by the miserable look on their faces, they really are wretched souls.

Hundred Years War - French Men at Arms. This unit is a real mix and match of Claymore Casting, Perry Miniatures, Black Tree Design and Crusader Miniatures from North Star. I think medieval units look best with lots of variety to the poses.

Love the muted tones they look very realistic. Wish someone would do English longbowmen that look bedraggled and suffering from dysentery.

The Perry HYW archers definitely have a few figures with hose rolled down, both in metal and plastic.

Cheers guys, the HYW is a period I have always fancied doing, but never quite got around to, until Claymore Castings launched their fantastic range of miniatures.
