[carvel2]

@Mrtn sorry I've missed most of this thread...great figures and a splendid army building! Love the tufting and ...the sunshine. Beards look great

[westwaller]

I really like the new additions @mrtn. Are those green stuff beards?

[Cubster]

Lovely stuff.

A town militia with flaming torches? Well, may be a sortie to destroy the siege train of an attacker.
Powder cask, baaaaannnng

Nice miniatures.

You wouldn't believe what I've planned to add to that militia unit. I don't think any of them are from the correct historical period.
But then it's only a 7 point unit, and I can always replace them with better models later when I get a more positive cash flow.

Thanks mate.

Either that, or my models have stopped shaving. Yeah, it's GS, and thank you.

Lovely stuff.

Thank you!

Here's a cannon crew from The Assault Group, and the first musketman from my next regiment.

The cannon crew in their natural environment:



And the latest batch of pikemen and musketeers. Here you see four of the beards I sculpted.

[Invisible officer]

Very nice.

The beards are great for more varieties in a unit.

[grant]

I also enjoy the brds!

[mikeland]

Love those pikemen, beards are really great!

Thanks guys, glad you like the beards.

I received my croat cavalry from Old Glory. It's hard to find any good pictures of them on the net, but I like what I got. All ten riders and horses are different (though they share one of four types of body with a different head on), and I got them fast and with good communication. Some bits are bent, and the lance arm for the standard was missing, but other than that it seems like a nice set.

Here are some command models I converted, and a comparison to Warlord's cavalry.
