From Jez Todd: Week 12 - Landsknechts - 15 points

 Hi All 

Bit slow week as only 3 figures painted - still I suppose they are Landsknechts. Got sidetracked in touching up my Imperialist army - the lead is mainly old Hinchcliffe, painted ...ahem ...over 30 years ago! They needed a freshen up as they all looked a bit dated, not helped by the "old school" way I had based them up. As I play Impetus I wanted to use more of the diorama basing style I have with the more recent armies. 

Anyway what better way to freshen up a unit than by adding an extra standard bearer. This is a  Hinchcliffe artillery figure, that has one of the brilliant Pete's flag standards. I switched and added him into the back base for a pike block. 



The second figure is a Foundry shot - I needed him to make up the missing figure for another skirmish unit. Chose the classic yellow as really wanted to show that it was a Landsknecht unit. 



 Finally I had an Artisan halberdier that was kicking around. I added him to another couple of foot to make a foot command base - handy if I decide to put my General with a pike unit. 



  So just 15 points - will try to get another post in just to finish off the Challenge. Have a great final few days all. 

Cheers Jez
