...and only because you re-linked to this thread have I clicked it's the Perry's WR36 Richard III miniature. Still a stunning piece.

Thanks guys- appreciated.....  8)

I've got well over 300 mini's to paint and that, apart from the beginnings of Charles VIII donning his armour is as far as I've got. i've really got to pull my finer out and concentrate on one thing at a time.... or two.... or three.... or four.....  o_o lol o_o

For the French there's also this that I'm starting work on today, it's Charles VIII donning his kit before the Battle of Fornovo.

Looking forward to getting stuck into those gilded metallics!!  8)

Gonzaga crossing the river is one of the most beautifully painted vignettes we've seen on this site (and that is very high praise - given the very high standards set here).  And I love the vignette of the King donning his armor - looking forward to seeing it completed.

Thanks, that is high praise indeed!!  :)

The second vignette should be finished shortly... I hope!

Surely it doesn't take too much of an effort for an author of a thread to take note of where eactly they have contributed extra images and credit this with a small clear note?

We make our enjoyment out of viewing your painting and for us it is an essential part of the deal of not wasting time looking for these extra images. Lets face it, without the masses out there who make the contributions (for free in my case!) there would not be a wargames media to speak of at all.

(Actually taken verbatim from my blog):

I think posting an uncredited statement from my blog is more than a little rude! It was a legitimate complaint that the editor of said mag. apologised for in public on Facebook. I stand steadfastly by what I said. It is also not pertinent to the topic in any way.
