Lovely. While the painting is basic, there's a few focal points - I'm liking that knight being dragged along by his horse.

It will be moved to the Leeds Royal Armouries according to the Perry FB page.

That's even better! Much closer to me and of course I'll be able to see it at least once year when I head down to one of the Leeds shows! Hurrah!!  8)

I think I'll avoid the long slog to London, as tempting as a visit to the Tower may be, and like you visit it when it takes up residence in Leeds. A quick walk across the frontage from Fiasco virtually next, okay it means waiting until October 2016 but I'm sure it'll be worth it.
I can't see any credit towards whoever painted all these figures, no mention on the FB page, does anyone know who must have burnt the candle at both ends slaving over all these with a paintbrush?

Leeds makes good sense. It's a much better purpose built space. Getting into the Tower of London past teeming hordes of tourists is nobody's idea of fun.

I look forward to going to see this in the flesh when it moves to Leeds. I first got into wargaming after seeing a large charge of the light brigade museum exhibit in 1:72 plastic as a youngster so this is just the type of thing to get some new blood interested in the historical hobby and as opposed to GW.
