Captain Blood's Perry Mounted Men at Arms. P.157 Another company of men at arms

[Captain Blood]

He's putting an enemy out of his misery 

[Admiral Benbow]

The electorate is mainly composed of the people taking part, and I have my suspicions that perhaps not all votes are always cast purely based on an objective assessment of quality...
Only the prize marrow competition at a village flower show is more brutal.

Couldn't have said it better. This and the frugal 40 voters are my reason to stop participating there. There's a real chance only for vikings and topless maidens ... 

[Captain Blood]

Possibly my favourite paint job of your recent figures, those Blue and white stripes are lovely.

Thanks.
Stripes are actually easy to paint but instantly give a figure a bit of wow factor 
As these are gaudy Italians, there will be a lot of stripes!



Next mercenary off the production line...

[Atheling]

Rather spiffing Richard (to say the least!)

 

Darrell.

[Totleben]

Fare la bella figura, infatto. 

[Mason]

These Italian troops of yours are a really wonderful, flamboyant bunch aren't they?
Stripes and all.
Great brushwork!
 

With that red, I cannot help thinking of them as the ancestors of the Ferrari family.
Will they be designing a 'battle wagon'...?

Don't get him started 

Da Vinci...... hmmmm..... Richard?

[Lowtardog]

love work Cap`n, I am struggling through 8 foundry orcs in Landsnikket gear theya re a reall bugger to paint having so much gear on them, let alone choosing colours, this thread as well as eye candy and envy gives me no end of help

[Captain Blood]

Keep at it Karl! 

Hmmm. Ferrari... Should have thought of that, shouldn't I? 

Maybe a new banner is required...

[Constable Bertrand]

Woo, Capitain blood!!!!! 

If they were yellow wearing farmers, you could do Lamborghini. But as hot blooded red fashionistas they probably should be elite ferrarians.

I would have to disagree with the first part but I certainly agree with the second.  Your figures definitely have a great "wow" factor.

Just fantastic. The stripes do jazz them up, and they're going the right way so as to elongate the leg, making even slightly heavier fellows look thinner. Saw that bit on Oprah once. Stripes are meant to be vertical!

Exactly!

"Ich bin ein Bilderdied!"

That's a bit unfair....
