Y'know, dark ages and early mediaeval are my favourite periods, but I could seriously go for a bunch of these.

Lovely. But you may want to dampen down the shine on the mail a little with a black wash. Mail is usually dull.  :)

A brown wash might work even better  :)

Cracking start, they look lovely.

I really love these models, i have a whole bunch of the knights (some crusaders too) and samurai. You should try some with a snow base, it really makes the models look dark and grimm.

You did an outstanding paint job on them, Keep it up! I had mine painted through blue table painted do to mass amount of miniatures that I need painted quickly. I had them paint over 200 which leaves me with only a few armies left to paint for the zombie war game I'm working on..

Everytime I see a bunch of those, I feel the urge to get me some.

How do they scale with the (very) old Perry Citadel Bretonnians? I'm just painting up one of those old archers for the Painting Order, and style-wise it looks a lot like the Archers shown here.

The Perry stuff is smaller but you get a better dynamism in the pose then they did with the Bretonnian range they designed- which I love- and do have many miniatures in my HYW English- see my La Journey Blog for examples:
