From GrahameH - 15mm SYW French Artillery and Elizabethan English 900

Not a great year for painting as rebasing some older armies and having to decorate the house. Therefore painting has taken a bit of a backseat. 

I decided to try and finish some bits just to finish off stuff that has been sitting on the painting table for too long. The Elizabethan English I started years ago during a previous challenge, so it was nice to get them done. 

Flags are from Pete's Flag from Ebay and all based on Impetus type bases with a 8cms frontage.

SYW French Artillery 

Three guns each with four crew. 15mm Essex (36pts)

Elizabethan English (15mm Essex)

English Border Horse. 16 Mounted figures (64pts)

I have a few units of these, probably too many, having painted a few units in the past. However, it was either paint them or sell them. So they got painted. 

English Commanders.

General (12pts)

Sub General (8pts)

English Pikemen (256pts)

Each block contains 32 figures. I was going to make it 48 but the thought of painting so many pikemen was too much. Especially as I have to finish off a Dutch and Spanish Army for the same period. I think 32 figures look ok(ish). Four block making a total 128 figures.

English  Arquebusiers (128pts)

Four units each 16 figures.

A regiment is made up of a Pike Block and one unit of Arquebusiers in case anyone is interested, hence the flags a similar. 

English Billmen (64pts)

Two units of these each of 16 figures. The Blue unit I copied from Warlords Pike and Shotte rule book. 

English Sword and Shield (32pts)

A unit of 16 figures. The shield colour is the same as the Spanish unit I painted a few years back so I guess I should change one of them.

English Longbowmen (128pts)

Couldn't be an English Army without some Longbow. These will join other Longbow units previous painted. Four Units here, each of 16 figures. 

Mounted Arquebusiers (40pts)

Unit of 10 figures 

The Artillery (20pts)

Two Guns and four crew each

The Irish 

A this army is intended to fights my Irish I have included a few Irish Mercenaries.

Gallowlas (64 Pts)

Two units of these, again each of 16 figures 

Irish Kern (30pts)

Three skirmish units, each of five figures.

A few figures left over so they were painted. I'll use them as markers. (8 pts)

Total 890 Pts 

Hopefully I'll finish the Dutch Army next. Most of it is already painted expect for, what seems to be, an awful lot of pikemen which |I am not looking forward to. However, I hope they will get me to my 1500 target. 

From DaveD . boom, now there is a mighty points bombe. It’s not often we see those in 15mm either . That’s a real mix of figure options and some tidy flag work too. Let’s call that 900.
