The Battle of Vastabelli

An outing for the Italian Wars collection features on my blog at present if you have a few spare minutes.

Fantastic.

That looks superb, very colourful too.

Magnificent and spectacular, curse you Mr B, I am now thinking how much I'd like to recreate my old Swiss and Burgundian armies in a similar style. I love the dioramic element bases. It looks grand, but you have craftily accomplished it without too many troops, making it a far less daunting prospect. Damn.

[Essex Boy]

Excellent. And good to see proper basing.

Seriously nice armies.

Those look really good
Which manufacturers are they from please David?

Mostly TAG to begin with as they do/did starter army deals, plus I joined their 'club' for a year at £10, getting 10% off orders in that time. Landsknechts are from Warlord, bar one block of figures gifted me by TimH. To that I've added Casting Room and Foundry while Phil has mainly Perry Miniatures, even some plaaaastics! One large gun & crew I got from a B&B for £8, it was GW.

I agree that plastics are not everybody's cup of tea, but I am looking at the Perry's Wars of the Roses plastics, and one box of each would give me the Swiss and Burgundian armies I want as I would do them in dioramic element style, as you have. Plus plenty of flags, and the cost would not be crippling.

I have much the same thought Tim though about WOTR

Thanks, I need to have a good look at TAG
