From JezT - Assorted Landsknechts - 25mm (60 points)

 Dear All, 

Yikes only a few more posting weeks in the challenge to go! Glad to finish off a few odd Landsknechts for my Renaissance armies though. They are mainly Steel Fist Miniatures figures, some of which I wanted to blend into existing units to add a bit more variety. 

Here are the figures before basing 

This is the first time I have painted figures from Steel Fist and personally I found adding the heads and weapons a bit fiddly, but pleased with the end results. Here are 3 Landsknecht skirmish crossbow.

Next is a single Steel Fist Arquebusier - which added to an existing unit.

Then I have a Light Gun set - the figures are from Steel Fist but not sure about the actual gun. I painted these to be part of the French Army "Black Band" Landsknechts. 

Here is another Steel Fist figure that I have added in as a replacement into a pike block to add more variety.

Finally a couple more Steel Fist Leader and Standard Bearer now added into a mainly old Hinchcliffe figure pike block.

Next is another Standard Bearer but this time a TAG The Assault Group figure - this was a very nice Thirty Years war standard bearer figure that I wanted to act as a replacement. Originally the figure had a "Morion" helmet so did a heads swap.

Finally is a unknown figure that picked up somewhere and although Landsknecht have used to beef up and strengthen a Swiss Halberdier unit. I painted in light blue and white as part of the Zurich contingent. 

So in total it is 12 figures for 60 points.

Cheers Jez

Nice work here Jez! You've managed to blend figures from several different manufacturers together into a pretty cohesive unit, kudos for a good eye on that. I particularly like the stripey outfit on that dude from the Zurich contingent, very nice. Separate heads and weapons aren't my favourite things either and you've done a good job with 'em.

Sixty for your tally!
