Nice to see that you added some mounted troops to your project. Can't wait to see them painted up. Foundry may seem expensive but they are less expensive than the figures sold by GW. It is not sacrilage to use alternatives to their figs. Three Bretonnian Grail knights are $60 US. I cannot justify paying that much.

Those Foundry models are what I used for my Warhammer Fantasy - Empire army, back in 2000. Still fantastic models!

Really enjoying watching the progress of this new project as it is currently something that I am doing ... It's a great period ,full of colour and who doesn't love a nice Landsknecht like block ! Look forward to seeing those Gendarmes painted up ,I have used Perry plastics for my mounted I did want to get the Foundry figures but balked at the price ! If You do add some plastics you will find that there is a height difference in the horses . Have a look at the video from Yarkshire gamer on his Papal army he has both .. As for spiral patterns on the lances I find just doing one of two amongst other coloured lances actually makes them stand out more ... 😊

The Foundry sales is always good, we dipped in and bought a load for a future project this year (I just need to finish writing the rules for it 😂). I’m like you though, I prefer metals over plastic as they have that traditional toy soldier appeal to them. Take care mate 😁

The Foundry figure have mostly impressive or at least nice poses. I enriched my ACW troops with the addon of some Foundry miniatures. Metal paints itself like it did in the days when I started the hobby. Just beautiful.

Lovely models as usual from Foundry. The price of metal is ridiculous these days, such a shame. It makes supporting the smaller companies that bit harder. Looking forward to seeing them painted up, it's going to be a cracking army when you're done

Some brilliant reinforcements. As you say though Foundry is pricey, but worth it for those special units. "New range" for warhammer... pretty sure I have some those "new" models from years ago 😂😂

I'm surprised you haven't considered some of the Perry plastic Wars of the Roses figures for gendarmes - yes, they're a bit early but not everyone would be wearing the current fashion - given the cost of armour I suspect you'd find that a lot of the cavalry would be wearing a mix of gear, bought new or second hand, inherited, or looted. And their plastic foot could be worked in as "allies" with those heads that you have - and the arms etc are pretty interchangeable with the Warlord plastics.

Hi malcolm. Will probably get the plastic set at some point but been a fan from afar concerning the Foundry metals since they were released all those years ago. Thanks for the comment 👍

Happy New Year Frasier. Your bolthole for an escape from the grand children. A lot of the foundry figures were sculpted by Allan Perry. The releases in the 90's were all part of the Ansell gaming model. Spiral painting on the lances you need to have a powered jig to paint them in before you fit them to the riders. Looking frowardto seeing these painted. Do you have a limber and team for the artillery? What rules are you intending to use Hail Ceasar or Pike and Shotte. First WH releases today for pre-order.
