KenR - The last 28mm Italian Wars Spanish Cavalry (75 points)

 

As it's the last one I thought I would start with a group shot ! 48 Spanish Gent d'Armes (12 done pre challenge) are complete, for now. If you think it's a lot it's half the size of Italian horde 😁

This week's entry is 6 28mm Spanish Heavy Cavalry from The Assault Group, based in twos on a 50 x 60 base, with Petes Flags to finish them off.

Points wise is 6 x 10 for the figs and a couple of Flags for another 2 making 62 points in total.

With about 3 weeks to go I need to crack on with the Pike and with two entries in this week, let's see if I can make it 3.


Just smashing work again Ken, a lot of eye candy to feast on here.  I am a little sad that this particular project has come to an end.  Surely you can find more can't you.  The opening shot is breath taking.  I am bumping your score to 75 to recognize the sale and quality.

  6. Gorgeous - do you use a satin varnish to build up that sheen on the armour?

    1. Thanks very much, I don't use varnish on armoured figures as it changes the "shine" of the paint 👍
