From TamsinP: 28mm Wars Of The Roses Currours and Commanders
For what will be my final post for this project on here, I present the last (for now*) elements of my Wars of the Roses army.
The ADLG list allows up to two bases of "Currours" (heavy cavalry), and that is what I painted up (I know - Shock! Horror! Tamsin didn't paint more bases than the list allows!). I also painted up six command stands - three foot, three mounted - which will allow me to field two standard or three smaller armies. But on with the pics!
Currours:
Commanders:
For those who are wondering, in the seven weeks since I started this project I have painted 36 mounted and 202 foot figures. If this had been for the Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge, that would be 1370 points without any bonuses - just short of what my pre-bonus points total for what I painted over thirteen weeks for AHPC X!
As several people had requested, I took some group shots of the completed army. Here's one of everything - I've put more on my own blog.
All figures are 28mm plastics from Perry Miniatures.
* "for now": there are lots of optional troops which can be added in future - artillery, Scots, Welsh and Irish troops, mercenary pikemen, crossbowmen and handgunners. I can foresee the collection growing large enough for me to field three or maybe even four standard-sized ADLG armies, so I will need more command stands. And baggage camps
