Shoulder inside, not too bad - stiff but usable. Physio starts Tuesday  ::)
Wounds, small but very sore. Not a fan of dissolving stitches...  :(

Painted editions of the first couple of riders will follow a bit later today. Just finishing them off  :)

Lets hope all goes well and the Physio suggests several hours a day exercising the shoulder by the wielding of a paintbrush!

Here are my first completed Mounted Men at Arms...
Sorry for the orgy of pictures, but I wanted to show a few angles for the cognoscenti  ;)




















In case you're wondering how they look alongside the metals, here are the new recruits with their respective captains...
Plastic / metal... I don't think you could tell the difference could you?  ;)





As mentioned, these figures will form part of a diorama portraying a Towton-style post-battle 'hunt' (only without the snow).
I'm not going to show the whole thing here until I've run it in a painting competition - but I have also made up an additional corpse to add to the battlefield litter... A spear through the thigh and a vital artery...

Great stuff...you have a good touch with horses.  Is it safe to assume that the metals are Perry as well?

Cheers

Bloody lovely, Captain!

The horse are fantastic, you can almost see the muscles bunching as they move.
You are correct, of course, they do blend very well with the metals.
Looking forward to the diorama when you are ready to reveal all!

Wow, very nice! They blend perfectly with the metals. Looking forward to seeing the whole group.

a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.
