Bosworth Field Project - Based
So the majority of figures for this project have been based onto Litko plywood bases. The infantry are based 3-figures per 40mm squares, and the mounted 3-figures per 50X80mm rectangles. Most of figures are Old Glory from their Agincourt and War of the Roses ranges - the so-called Revenge line. The longbowmen and billmen are plastic Perry Miniatures.
I'll likely get box of Perry Medieval Mercenaries and another box of WotR Infantry for this project.
I don't plan on having too many missile troops as the scenario I envision will be more of the close-combat portion of this battle. I'm debating how to include the Stanley faction which turned the tide of the battle - "Treason!"

Wow, most impressive work Dean!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Phil!
DeleteThey all look good massed together - always a significant achievement. I to have Old Glory WOTR and love 'em.
ReplyDeleteThanks! The OG Medieval ranges area all very nice - well-sculpted and designed. Best, Dean
DeleteVery nice figurines and good base.
ReplyDeleteYes impressive ! Great Dean .
ReplyDeleteCheers .
That is looking wonderfully impressive, a great achievement Dean.
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful collection so far Dean!
ReplyDeleteQuiet impressive work Dean... especially considering the speed!
ReplyDeleteVery, very cool - I am most impressed
ReplyDeleteVery impressive Dean! I really like them!
ReplyDeleteGreat collection and I like the new basing scheme.
ReplyDeleteNice job!
Thank you all very kindly, Gentlemen. Nice to have the major portion of this project completed. Now I can add more figures/units as needed. Warm Regards, Dean
ReplyDeleteWow that is impressive! It always amazes me how quickly you can paint a very large group of figures. I can't wait to see some pics of them close up!
ReplyDeleteOh, Sorry I didn't mention it in the post, but I had most of these painted before and just re-based them. The Perry plastics were the only new ones I painted - plus the lances as they formerly held flags. Best, Dean
DeleteThey look great, Dean! Nice basing, too.
ReplyDeleteA very impressive amount of work Dean!

Although Late Medieval is not my favorite period, I am getting the strong urge to get some figures on the table to do battle against you! A very impressive display. As always, very nice work Dean.

DeleteI also hope to do some Renaissance with my Empire guys - Pavia maybe. Thanks for those Empire troops BTW. Dean
Beautiful! Really a treat to see them all out like this.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Monty. I've had them for a while, but they were individually based for WAB - I they way they look now better, and should work for modified Hail Caesar. Only thing is I may have to add a few more units. I was hoping to get by with the existing WAB figures and the one box of Perrys. Wishful thinking. Best, Dean
DeleteLovely work Dean. These are glorious!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michael. I'm glad they'll get a new lease of gaming again. They've been collecting dust too long. Best, Dean
DeleteImpressive collection of minis Dean! Very nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jason. It'll be nice to get them back in games again. Best, Dean
DeleteGreat to see! The medieval and WOTR periods are faves of mine! They were the first WAB armies I collected...The Osprey on WOTR is a good read.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Scott. I really got hooked on Medievals after perusing the Turnbull book on the Medieval Knight. That and the Crecy/Poitiers and Agincourt Ospreys. Who can resist knights in shining armor (and colorful surcoats, jupons and tabards). Best, Dean
DeleteThey look very imposing all gathered together.
ReplyDeleteThanks, James. I just picked up the last box of Perry Mercenaries from the Matrix - where I previously picked up the last box of Perry WotR Infantry. They were probably sitting on the shelf for a few years too. Best, Dean
