Italian Wars - Look at my Codpiece - updated Jan 2015
« on: 16 October 2011, 04:17:53 AM »
This all began with the "my codpiece is bigger than yours" challenge to a mate on another forum  a while back

I have too many projects on the go at present but though it might be fun to put them on the table, but I thought I might have had a few more than this painted to date. Nothing like seeing your troops out to galvanise you into painting more :roll:





Artizan Landsknecht pike









Some arquebusiers







Some armed with greatswords and a few with halberds







Some Eureka Cavalry



the Gendarmes


and the "archers"
