Lovely work. The colours you have used on these look great Matt.
Did the French have longbows......and if so, why didnt they think of using them at Agincourt and Crecy?! Wonderful looking figures whatever the case Matt.
thank you Lawrence, i do like creams, blues and greens
Yes quite a few, one man for every ten hearths in the parish was paid to be a full time archer (spear or bow). The arrière-ban (muster rolls) mention them regularly but not in great numbers.
