Well I bet this is a surprise? No Donnybrook!
Long Long ago, long before my blog, I painted up a rather large 15mm army for both sides for the Battle of Pavia 1525. The Rejects played quite a few games using Age of Discovery rules, which always worked well, if a little fiddly. I'll get them out again one day, I promise!
These 3 small units have been glued to sticks ready to paint since around 2002-5. So I thought they'd be a good entry into The Obliette bonus round.
I hadn't planed on painting any 15mm figures during this Challenge, but it sure reminded me just how quick they are to paint up, over 25mm.
The figures on the right are from Essex Miniatures and I can't remember who made the two Landsknechte units? They could be Venexia, but I'm not 100% sure?
The 3 units of 15mm figures will earn me 48 points
along with the 20 point Bonus, making a total of
68 points.
Those have been sitting in your paint queue for quite some time, haven't they? I'll bet you're glad to finally have them painted. As a special reward, I've found half a red wax crayon for you.

Great trip back in time Ray and nice looking Italian Wars types.
ReplyDeleteThanks Peter.
DeleteVery nice Ray! It would be great to see them in a game when the Rejects can get together again.
ReplyDeleteYep that's what I'd like to do. Get a game in with these soon.......fingers crossed!
DeleteAlways nice to see Italian wars figures and these are great!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain.
DeleteNice job, I've a few figures to paint then it's 10mm Italian wars all the way
ReplyDeleteSounds like a plan.
DeleteAlmost 20 years maturing nicely.
ReplyDeleteTerrible isn't it?
DeleteWe'll just call them 'well seasoned', won't we. Great work Ray. Did you find that your painting style has changed over the years?
ReplyDeleteNo, not at all. I've kinda stuck with the same method for 15mm for years now....thank gawd.
DeleteVery nice Ray!
