At the Artillery Ground..


 
The gentlemen have assembled to train, to shoot and to handle pike. Thanks to My Lord Lacey Cotta ( and his well thumbed book) they are ready for war.
I fancied painting up a few figures having added some bows and quivers to some a Minifigs pikemen. I will need to have a think about how they will work under the rules. A fun project of a forgotten chapter in the annals of war.

  3. Nice. I had that officer figure 40+ years ago—he's a gunner IIRC. There's a great charm to old Minifigs. They were the real deal way back when and still produce great memories. I think if they were more available now, I'd be tempted to do a project using them. However, ordering Minifigs in the 21st century is pretty dodgy.
