Great looking figures (and buildings for that matter) and I hope you post more soon.

With no distractions, the latest unit is close to completion. There's just the small matter of fixing a flag to a pole and tidying up.

Here's a bit of a preview:







Usual unit history once the unit is ready. Have a great weekend!

Excellent, the church is great too. :)

Stunning! I much prefer this war to the Wars of the Roses so it's refreshing to see some HYW stuff!

Thank's all - I can't take credit for the church though. Treated myself to one of Grand Manner's painted ones  :-*

The HYW is fascinating, but I also have some WotR minis shouting for some attention - and then there are the new castings from Claymore...

Sorry, I missed that one in my last post.

Two units to go to take me to 2750 pts as per the new WAB lists: another unit of archers and the Duke of York's household (dismounted). The Valois army is in a similar position with one unit of twenty-four dismounted men-at-arms and a handful of heavy horse to paint. That's not to say that I wont add the odd unit (such as militia for the French) or figure (still thinking about which figure would be best for Gilbert de Umfraville) in due course.

Then of course, there's the small issue of a Scottish army c.1400  :o

I'll get some proper shots done over the weekend, but here's the finished unit:



You'll see the odd change from the preview shots above. Whilst perhaps accurate, I felt some of the figures looked a bit jestereque, so repainted the odd set of hoes  ;)
