War of the Roses.....look out for the bill hooks 2

 

 War of the Roses Men at Arms

Been a bit quite as I am slogging my way through 204 1/72 Cuirassiers for a customer order, in between I have been painting War of the Roses Men at Arms for another customer and some Gauls for myself.

 Figures are from Perry miniatures metal and plastic range, just lovely figures. Happy with the spirals on my lances, I use a hobby holder that I got on a kick starter that uses soft drink lids that screw on than can rotate on the holder, it makes life simple for these lances that is for sure.

  2. I am in awe of your paint work on the lances. I attempted a 'twist' last week, failed and went for wood brown instead :-)

  3. These look marvellous. I bet those 1/72 cuirassiers do too. Which figures are they?

  6. Outstanding work Matt! Your lances look ace! I would like to see the contraption that allowed such perfect spirals.

  7. The spirals are awesome; I gave up long ago and just paint straight bands/rings!

    1. I have a technic I picked up from a large scale modeller and use that, the painting handle changed the way I paint a lot
