Another nice unit, I like your muted colours, and your man's five o'clock shadow!

Thanks for the comments, fellas.

Sorry it took so long to make a reply; flu got in the way, as did life as well as work 

And about that shield, I stole the idea myself from Painterman.
One of his latest Coustiliers had such a shield slung on his back.
I merely adapted it into an attacking pose.

Where are the standing horses from?

Where are the standing horses from?

Those are metal horses from Front Rank Miniatures, from their WoTR range.

They have three types of standing still horses; MH1, MH5 and MH6.

Front Rank is a bit bigger & bulgier than Perry but against the foot knights they do look
like strong warhorses capable of carrying a knight.

Started on this unit back in November only to finish it this week just in time for friday's game

My Swiss will get their first forays into combat this friday in a couple of small Kings of War games.
Against fantasy armies now, but I hope that the game fits well enough for historicals and this way get some others interested in it too.

Nice work - they look convincingly Swiss!
