Hello everyone,

This is from my Early HYW English collection.This unit represents Lord Thomas Beauchamp\'s Earl of Warwick and his retinue of Knights and men at arms.The knight carrying the Banner of St. George is Sir Richard FitzSimon.The knights are all modeled after real life knights and nobility.Tell me what you think. :rolleyes:

[Regulator]

Perfect as usual! :rolleyes: love those shields.

[flytime]

Wow the look great. thumbs up!

[Vingthor]

very nice work!! youve mixed in some teutonics, right?

[Axebreaker]

Thank you. No,I didn\'t mix in teutonics.It\'s that some of the knights are in tournement or dress armour that was worn at the time.On campaign of course they would dispence with this.I use it to futher distinguish them from the men at arms,and for the simple reason it looks cool.:thumbup:

[Scipio]

Wow. Again an impressive job! :thumbsup:

[Vingthor]

i dont know much about the hyw so i thought they were teutonics

[Wellington]

Very good! Perhaps some knights have a little to modern equipment for early HYW.

@Ghibeline

Thank you 8o Please be more specific on \"modern\"equipment,because I don\'t agree. :whistling: My models match up with Crecy and Poitiers very well. :thumbup:The Heraldry is correct and they are armed only with swords,shields,maces and hand axe.All my equipment is in accordence with Osprey books covering this time period.I believe Osprey books are one of the best,if not the best source material for uniforms,equipment,and battles.

[Wellington]

Christopher, you are absolute right with the choice of your miniatures!  :hail:  I thought the helmet of the standard bearer (St. George) is to modern, but I checked the Ospreys. I was not aware that this helmet was used that early!

[Axebreaker]

If I sounded very defensive,that wasn\'t my intent. Like almost all of us here I wanted to be as accurate as possible with my units. :thumbup: Speaking of the HYW how are your units coming along?The last I looked,they looked good.Send in your new units.

I was very lazy, started with pirates etc. I have to focus again on the HYW army. This week I get new knights and I hope after Nottingham I can show a little more.

[Hanno Barka]

You did an impressive job on them! :thumbsup:

I love your terrain-shootings and painted minis very much! Hope to see more of them in the near future... :thumbup:
