Shire levy mustering
« on: May 09, 2016, 12:37:59 PM »


Here's my first post on Medieval Adventures (I'm mostly ancients). These are some minis painted by Redzed and by Partick Connor that I've just based up as part of a small Wars of the Roses army I'm raising for To the Strongest! I picked the less-armoured minis as these are somewhat second class troops. There's a basing tutorial on my blog: http://bigredbat.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Bat%20basing

Thanks- I can't paint like those chaps can, but am quite competent with a tuft!  :-)

Top notch and I like your take on the basing.

Very nice indeed, both figures and basing.
Plenty of coverage on the base without going too far.

I really like the irregular basing. I wish I had thought of that.

Thanks very much all.   

I'm really pleased with the irregular bases- I'm going to use some larger-sized ones to rebase one of my larger ancient armies this autumn.  Because all of my gaming is on grids, there isn't any need to be square any more!
