Italian Wars - Look at my Codpiece - updated Jan 2015
« on: October 16, 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"

Thanks for the encouraging comments Gents
I love painting Artizan stuff, Mike Owen is such a talented sculptor

Looking at the footprint they have on the table I know that I'm going to have to but loads more pike o_o
