Hundred Years War - English Archers

Some hasty snaps of some recent units I've painted for a HYW game to be played later in the year. Didn't even get the backdrop out.........will fix that once I get the full battle in order.

These are all old Wargames Foundry models that I inherited from a friend a couple of years back, but never really got around to doing anything with, so put some new paint onto and rebased/reflagged.

I had originally intended to make them WOTR suited, but figured that I'd just go with HYW and blend the two together as and when I needed to.

Still a long way to go with HYW though, as I've gotta start on the French yet!

Wars of the Roses - Household and Support

Got the medieval mood, so spent a couple of days working on a WOTR household, plus a cannon for support. No real side nor historical figure, just a basic made up one.

Plus some collected shots, seeing as I had the box to hand...........

Blood Beast Terror!

Bashed out a Varghulf in about 30-35 mins. Just went at it with a DO IT Pink Fairies attitude and did it.

Don't talk about it Man, JUST DO IT!

They Eat the Flesh of The Living! Drink the Blood of The Dead!

Repainted a bunch of ghouls and ghoulish vampires. Annoyingly, the old Strigoi one has already managed to chip in the time between painting and getting these pics done, but that can be fixed when its near some paint.

Theres about 25 years of collecting ghouls in there - on and off.

(Note the damned chip!)

Napoleonic British - Brigade of Foot

Finally, FINALLY, got my sorry arse in gear and painted a brigade of Napoleonics. It's only taken about four years with a monkey on my back, namely boxes and boxes of large hatted hardmen sitting in the gaming valhalla staring at me.

Initially, the reputation that Napoleonic stuff has for being fiddly put me off.
Then it was the volume of stuff I had

Really, I was just being a lazy bastard.

They aren't too bad once you get moving. So these aren't beautiful, nor are they perfect.....but they are done.

I have no idea how much more stuff I have to paint. For the British foot alone, I think theres another 5 regiments. Plus cavalry, plus artillery. We won't even mention the French.

Won't get done by rotting in a box though!
