"Call out the Commons!"

The first of two bases of Militia bowmen join the fray! Claymore Castings figures sculpted by Matt, received as a very kind gift from owner Dave Imrie after we chatted at The Other Partizan last month. I've tried to largely rely on a muted palette of colours hopefully to suggest their everyday wear rather than the Lord's  livery colours for example. Although they are 100 Years War figures I think they are fine for the earlier Wars of the Roses period, suggesting older equipment brought home from the wars and kept 'just in case'! Anyway, here they be ~

The figures for the second base are underway but there will be a delay in completing them as we are spending a long weekend down in Herefordshire visiting with Matt, Sarah, Arthur and Reuben. 

Hopefully the weather will look kindly on us.🤞
