Burgundian Ordonnance - handguns & crossbows
« on: 25 June 2013, 09:52:33 PM »
It appears that I get my thighs slapped (ever so gently!!) if I fail to mention on this august forum, that I've done a few more figures to add to my Burgundian army. So here's a pic of the latest mixed handgunnner and crossbowmen skirmishers.



Mix of Perry plastics and metals - with some major surgery on the chap vaulting the fence.

More pics on my Je Lay Emprins blog - the URL is http://je-lay-emprins.blogspot.co.uk/
Cheers
Simon.

The chap leaping the fence is inspired - brilliant

Some spiffing conversions there Simon. I think the chap advancing at the run with his handgun is my favourite. A very natural looking pose...

Great looking group and kudos for mixing your crossbows and handguns... not something usually seen in miniature, but I suspect was actually the case in reality.
