Here are some more minis for my Italian Wars; these are Venetian men-at-arms. Unusually, I painted these myself (well, I partially repainted some older minis and added some new ones) so they are a little rough around the edges, but acceptable. I decided to give them a Venetian red theme with some golden yellow details. For some reason, the bases came out particularly well.
At the moment, I'm pushing hard to finish the many elephants and scythed chariots for a huge Salute game. Post Salute, when I have more free time, I plan to add a second rank of coustilliers to complete a unit of 18 figures, and, later, I will add a second unit of 18. I also need several more Venetian infantry units.

The middle flag is one of Pete's excellent flags from eBay, and the left flag is an image I found on the 'net.
These were painted a month or so back, and saw action at the Godendag and Chalgrove To the Strongest! events, where they performed well. This is the first time I've had a chance to photograph and post them.
Very nice.

Nice additions Simon. Can't beat Pete's Flags really for the period.
ReplyDeleteAwesome colors and excellent paint job!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful figures Simon.
ReplyDeletePretty dang cool! Maybe the next unit of Knight's could be from one of their colonies or the Dalmatian coast.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, Would these guys have fought landschneckt? Forgive my ignorance.
