Sir Edmund Hampden & Sir Thomas Everyngham

 Two new additions to the Lancastrian faction of my Wars of the Roses collection in the shape of a base of bowmen and a retinue command base. The figures are from Perry Miniatures, a mix from both the Wars of the Roses and the Hundred Years War ranges. The flags are from a sheet of lesser Midland nobles by Freezywater, purchased at the recent The Other Partizan. Firstly, Sir Edmund Hampden, the command stand for this composite unit ~

Then Sir Thomas Everyngham, who is accompanied by his array of bowmen. The bowmen figures are from the Hundred Years War range, the other two from the Wars of the Roses ~

I'm working on the base of billmen to complete the formation, but for now these two bases are supplemented on the tabletop battlefield here in GHQ by the billmen commanded by Sir John Savage ~

As a well deserved bonus, because many readers have stuck loyally by me throughout my ramblings about the Wars of the Roses project and regularly offered encouragement in their comments, a picture of the whole collection to date laid out on the tabletop battlefield here in GHQ ready for next week's games ~

I have a second retinue in the painting queue, this time for the Yorkist faction and also two bases/units of MAA, one for each faction. I do hope to be able to finish all of those before the disruption of the Festive Season is upon us! We shall see...
