Barons' War additions(8)


A mixed bag of Medieval goodies for you this time. 

Firstly, the last of the Wargames Atlantic figures I have painted, only 11 remained and have made their way to the end of the production line this week.



The last Knight and a pair of Serjeants.

A trio of peasants with pointy sticks for the militia and levies.


The last three crossbowmen.



A couple of missile-armed peasants, one with sling and one with bow. I'm quite surprised the arrow survived this far, this one has usually broken off by this stage!




It's the last of the Wargames Atlantic for now and I don't see me buying any more until the new sets come out, then I'll be picking up again. But it's not the end of the Medievals, only yesterday postie bought some Medbury Miniatures 3D prints for me.



Adding to the Medieval scene is this market stall. The stall itself is from Victrix, as are many of the accessories, although the crates on the right and the bucket are from Bad Squiddo, while the wattle fence is Renedra.


I got down low and shone in a light for this warts and all view of some of the detail!


Victoria picked up for me some of the Medieval Vignettes from Athena Miniatures while we were at Fiasco a few months ago, they are nice enough subjects, but some of the figures are a bit rudimentary.


The first is a set of stocks with an unfortunate being pelted with rancid cabbages.



The barrel of cabbages is from TT Combat.


Next is a baker from the artisan set, also comes with a rather nice oven. 



The sacks and basket are from the Victrix set, while the bucket is a Bad Squiddo.


The next pair are a black smith and a cooper, the blacksmith is probably the weakest figure painted so far.


He could really use a forge!


Finally four other figures from the vignettes, a lady with a broom, a cobbler - will see use in a future Battle of Northampton game - a laughing merchant and a chap with his child on his shoulders.

Barons' War additions(7)


First up, Sir Henry de Hastings, supporter of Simon de Montfort in the Second Barons' War. Sir Henry commanded the Londoners at The Battle of Lewes, so I have depicted him on foot with a bannerman.


The figures are both from the Wargames Atlantic Foot Knights set, while the standard is from Footsore.



While I was splashing on the yellow and red, I added a few more Serjeants to the collection, again all from the Wargames Atlantic range.



This little vignette is of a Medieval equivalent of a food truck, the cook is a 3D print from Reconquer Designs, while the oven, cooking fire, stool and sack are from the Victrix Market set.




The cobblestones are from Wills Scenics and the base is a vehicle base from Warbases.


More 3D printing with a couple of boats from TCWminiatures3D.



A recent refight of the Battle of Rochester highlighted that we cannot have enough boats, so I added these to a recent order to check them out. Great pieces for the price!



The sacks are from the Victrix Market set while the chest is from TT Combat. 





The last few pieces are "shot" markets for our Midgard games, the Wargames Atlantic Peasant Levy frame contains these arrows that are useful for making the markers.
