More Wars of the Roses Units

In the last week I have completed another three of WotR items using the Perry Miniatures plastic figures.

The first is the command base for Richard III (with his glowing eyes - I can't paint eyes).



Next is the unit of mercenary pike that I started way back in August and have just finished with the arrival of the last five figures.



And finally is a unit of mercenary crossbow unit, that still need their pavises completed.

      Thank you Phil. We are playing a game tomorrow that you may be interested in - Austrians against Italians in 1866. I will try to post something tomorrow evening.

    Nice color combinations! The yellow/black and red/yellow/blue produce handsome results.

      It looks good, but yellow is soooo hard to work with. It takes three or four coats to get any sort of colour depth.

    There coming along nicely Mark.
    Personally I leave all my minis eyes black for shading.
    I use yellow quite a bit, and usually use the Foundry triads of Lemon, Ochre or Yellow.
    You might look at their site, match up the triads with your current colours.

      Thanks Nick. You missed a great even at JB's the other night, BTW. Lots of fun, even if we did lose to JB...although it was his birthday so I guess he deserved some special treatment.
