Warfare GNW Russian pikemen in kartuz
These chaps were a little bit behind in the production queue but as can be seen from these pictures were well worth the wait.
I am not whether it was the colour combination or the figures themselves but I really enjoyed painting this batch which are now available to purchase in the online store.
The poses are equally suited to being used for sergeants or perhaps even artillerists if a little variety...
Wandering Around Ireland, Part III
Clarence Harrison - The next day of our trip took us to lots of different sites!
Before leaving Enniskillen, we stopped at Enniskillen Castle and just had a walk around the outside. On March 11th 1689, Gustavus Hamilton formally declared Enniskillen for William of Orange.
