HYW French Command Stands

Several command stands for a French Hundred Years War army. The mounted figures are the Bastard of Orleans and La Hire. They are division command stands subordinate to the Joan of Arc army general  previously based. The center stand is an army general stand for use prior to Joan's appearance - as all of the identified figures on the stand were either killed or captured at Agincourt.
A few more shots of the "Agincourt" army command stand.
The Oriflamme standard was downloaded from the excellent Warflags website.

  4. Nice work Dean, never tackled a Medieval army, all that heraldry looks very time consuming.

  6. Excellent painting and composition, Dean!

    Such a pity that they will shortly be resembling pincushions...

  8. Thanks for your great comments, everyone. Much appreciated.

    @ HGA: The heraldry on these figures have been sculpted raised by the Perrys - something I would've botched if trying to paint it free-hand.

    Best, Dean
