Pics - Perrys Tewkesbury game at Salute
« on: April 25, 2010, 10:37:03 AM »
I took quite a few snaps at Salute - I'll add to the Salute picture thread later.

Meanwhile, for any Perry plastic WOTR enthusiasts out there, here are some shots of the Perry's wonderful Tewkesbury 1471 game, which was a stonking showcase for their figures.

I believe quite a lot of people had a hand in painting a share of the (1,000 or so?) figures involved - the cumulative effect was quite awesome.

I'm sure someone took a lot better shots than these, but it gives you a flavour.

Enjoy!

(Some neat conversions or special handmade Perry figures here I think!)

Very cool, thanks for sharing. Massed infantrymen and the vignettes are top notch. :-*
Only miss the period's ikons, i.e. some mounted knights. Hopefully next time. Way cooler than those pesky bowmen... ;D

Really, really nice. I wasn’t interested by the WotR but now I’m not so sure… ;D
Thanks very much for the pictures, Captain. It’s very much appreciated 8)

A variant on GW's LOTR Warhammer rules I believe.
