A bit of momentum, at last!

I have finally finished the two long spear (pike) armed companies, which join the French mercenary contingent.

I’m working on a representation of Pierre de Brézé, first cousin of Margaret of Anjou, to command the mercenaries. Margaret of Anjou’s command group is coming along, and Baron John Wenlock’s command group is ready for undercoating. I’m trying to decide whether the man at arms is imploring Wenlock to don his helmet.

I’ve also prepared two companies of bill men and one of archers for painting. One company of bill men and one of archers will comprise Wenlock’s retinue. I’ll get on with painting these while assembling more figures.

A small host of figures ready for painting, along with Margaret of Anjou, Edward Prince of Wales, Baron John Clifford, and Edmund Earl of Rutland. Since taking the photo I have blocked-in the flesh.
