I've finally found my way to the Alter of the Snow Lord!
From Curt..........Okay Ray! I heard you mention that, in the long and distant past, you and the Rejects collected 15mm Italian Wars figures to do Pavia. Well, colour me intrigued - I'd like to see a unit of these done up. What say you?
For my Oubliette post a few weeks ago, I painted up some 15mm Renaissance infantry that
have been laying around for far too long. These Gendarmes have also been laying in a box for far too long and it was about time they got a lick of paint!
The figures are from Venexia, which I bought at Salute form the original Venexia owners many moons ago.
They can be used for either side of the Battle of Pavia in1525.
I'm pleased how they came out, trouble is what do I do with the rest of the unpainted figures??
12 x 15mm Cavalry @4 pts each, 48 pts
bonus round 20 points
For a total of 68 pts
These are wonderful, Ray!! Just perfect for trampling those Swiss pike blocks under-hoof. And if the first charge doesn't succeed.... ;)
ReplyDeleteGo home as quick as possible?
DeleteNicely done, Ray. And obviously you've not got to finish painting all the rest of the figures and stage Pavia!
