Bannockburn - pt33 Battle -Day two

[1ngram]

How about doing some of the Scots who sided with the English at Bannockburn such as Ingram de Umfraville, David de Brechin and the Comyns?  After de Brus murdered John Comyn and drove them out they fought with the English - just as de Brus had done himself earlier when the Baliol/Comyn group held Scotland.

Working towards that one. I´m Close to getting 50 english kniggits and Sergeant-at-arms finished..when they are done I´ll make a Group of  "scotts who fought for the english", shields for Umfraville, Brechin and Comyn are already made

Representing on a Ratio of 50 : 1, The entire force of 50 ( a couple of scottish who fought on the english side will be added later)

Nice painting - very beautiful work on them all (nice to see it was at least mildly technical and not a breeze - gives us all hope!).

Love the caught English soldier. Was that a hard conversion?

Nicely done. Have these all been out on the table together?

(A very subtle hint to get a group shot.)

Thanks

Not yet, there´s a few (4 in fact) Gillies that need painting up and basing, then the entire scottish force will be finished, after that a couple of stands of archers and welsh spearmen for the english (I´ll skimp a bit on the english infantry as they didn´t play such a big role in the battle) and then it´s on to a bit of scenery and hopefully I´ll reach the target of finishing before the 700th aniversary..then the whole lot will appear together.
