Thank you  :)

Careful Captain, now everyone will be looking to see if they can spot any mistakes on your lances. :o

Heh heh... Well I'm painting Waldo The Fleming this evening, and his lance is straight up in the air - so no hiding place for any dodgy lines...  ;)
Hopefully you'll be able to judge tomorrow...

Anyway, in the meantime, here's that controversial man at arms still holding his poleaxe - the rascal  ;)

I've painted him in Howard Livery. The Howards are getting a lot of new recruits of late, but then they are one of the great noble houses of England - Earls of Surrey as well as Dukes of Norfolk...

Stunning as ever, so when will we see a group shot? I take it not until you pan out the options? btw how many boxes did you get Captain  :D

Two boxes Karl. I've built 18 figures and now painted 12 of them. 6 ore to paint and 6 more to build.
But my artillery has just arrived so I might switch onto that for a week or two. Must say getting a bit weary of horseflesh now  ;)

Another stonking figure. And thanks for the guidance on the lance stripe - will be giving a go soon.
Cheer, Simon.

Marvellous, I love the symbols on the shoulders and the facial expression.

Well I hope you're not getting too bored yet  lol
(I confess, I feel my willpower waning... 12 painted, 6 more on the table A/W paint...  ::))
Number 12 is Waldo the Fleming...

For the painterly amongst you, potential item of interest is that this horse and yesterday's (the one with the poleaxe wielding rider) I undercoated using Halfords dark brown 'camo' spraypaint, rather than black. I think it gives a better and slightly more subtle effect. Not massively noticeable, but if you're going to paint brown horses, it definitely takes one step out of the process as the darkest patches you see on the horse are the undercoat showing through...

Once the 18 are done! A group shot will follow ;)
The final 6 can wait...
Just spent 2 hours cleaning up, basing and prepping 10 metal artillerymen and some field pieces...
Don't talk to me about the time taken to assemble plastic figures!  ::)
