Fantastic stuff all around!  Kudos to you for attacking the lance decorations and fluer de les!  They scare me to death!

What will you be using for Italian piles?

Cheers,

I will take Perry plastic merceneries. They are great looking miniatures, though they are perhaps a little bit too old fashioned...;)



They are a bit WIP at the moment, but I have to go to bed now... o_o lol

Have you considered the TAG range for the Italian Wars? They certainly fill in some gaps.  They are slightly smaller than the current Perry plastics but are a nearly perfect match in size for the original Perry figures from Foundry's Renaissance range.

Okay, one week without any progress in my little Italy-project. And all I hve for now is some rebasing stuff... :'(

I rebased some of my wierd condotta stuff to get more pike on the table. A sad story: I hate rebasing... lol

But it did get me three 12mem blocks of pike; a good basis for "Pike and Shotte".



and a topview...



Perhaps a littel small, its the minimum size in Pike&Shotte. But I can add a few more pike stands if I find the time...:)

Cheers,
Don
