Hi

With the soon, september 2014, release of Dan Merseys medieval rules Lion Rampant I thought that my Summer project have to be to complete a new medieval army based on the armylist in the rules.

Danish Hoast project, this force I´m painting for my UK based friend Tony, I have been working on it for some time but never got around to finish it so I thought it was time to make some progres.

It will be a Danish Hoast that should be set in time from the Battle of Visby 1361 to the Battle of Åsle 1389 and maybe some erlier and later to, but in short the time of the King Valdemar IV of Denmark and his Daughter Queen Margaret I of Denmark. The minis are a mix of Perry and Claymore.

A few more picutres at my blog

Best regards Michael

It's always interesting to see other nations antics away from the historical 'norms' (crusades, hundred yeas wars etc).

Looking forward to seeing this continue as I love the research you put into your projects  8)

Hi

Just an easy start for my summer project, during the last week I just have painted the two mounted Men-at Arms to complete the Bybelsbak unit. As all mounted units in Lion Rampant there are 6 minis.

Some more pictures of the full unit at my blog.

Best regards Michael

Hi

Some slow progress in my Summer project, with just about one month to the release of the Lion Rampant rules.

This time I completed the second unit of Knights for the Danish Host, 5 new painted ones. The Knights are painted in the House of Thott colours.

More pictures at my blog

Best regards Michael
