JTinQT - Week Two Swiss Pike Drummer

Hi All

Week Two post and just a measly single figure - my Swiss pike project will take a while at this rate. Anyway this is a Foundry drummer and painted him in the more traditional red and white colours for Swiss troops.


Also managed to paint some disorder markers for the Swiss. Will play basic impetus and a Swiss army has high strength troops - lots of strong heavy infantry, so there are just 9 bases in total. Not sure if I will have enough markers as most of the time all my bases are in disorder. These are Warlord figures and got some more unpainted so will come back to those.



Am aiming for a 24 figure new pike block but not totally starting from scratch. Will be re basing these unused third rank base figures and a command base and skirmishers to add in. This picture is more motivational for me and hopefully can finish the first base next week.Will be totally re basing as always fun to play around with the figure positioning on a base.

 
All the best Jez

  4. Nice looking Reisläufer drummer, Jez! He'll help to get the rest in the ranks for sure.
