Well, here we are then, at last some might say under their breath, the very last of the metal figures dredged up from my Lead Pimple for the Wars of the Roses project. They are three Perry Miniatures standard bearers which I have repurposed into a small command vignette for the Burgundian mercenaries serving in the Yorkist cause ~
The central figure with raised sword needs no fiddling to pass as Jean the Timid, as their commander will be known to posterity, while simply adding a war axe from the Agincourt range to a second makes a passably posed MAA, leaving the third figure as intended to bear the Standard. The Standard I sourced after a Web search for Burgundian flags and banners; it was labelled as a Company Standard, but it will do for me as Jean's personal Standard! They are merely 'Toys in a game' you should remember. Now, unless I order any more figures, that is that! I still have no firm ideas for what to tackle next and nothing prepped for painting either. It's a most odd feeling I have to confess...
A fine flourish to the "finish" line. A man who knows where is bread is buttered (he thinks hopefully)
ReplyDeleteI think it is done as a project bar a base for Henry Tudor.
DeleteGreat looking command base!
