As most of the figures in the Reconquista project, these archers and their two supporting spearmen are from Black Tree Design. Great figures. With unadorned robes, these figures paint quickly and can be fielded with little fuss. In fact, a second stand of archers is at the painting desk.
In a similar situation to the Great Italian Wars project discussed in a recent post, the Reconquista project ought to get out onto the gaming table for a little action.
So many projects, so little time...
Ah, looking fantastic! I love your Reconquista project.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michal, and I love yours!
DeleteNice work, as always, Jonathan.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mark!
DeleteIndeed, a nice natural character to the figures.
ReplyDeleteVery kind observation, Norm, and much appreciated!
DeleteLovely clean work on some nice figures.
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks, Iain! BTD figures, I find, very easy to paint.
DeleteNicely done, achieving the irregular quality with the varied uniforms but keeping consistency with the same palate. The blue-on-white pattern on that figure in the front rank is an added bonus: I'll have to zoom in a bit and steal that technique for future use :)
ReplyDeleteAnother very kind observation, Ed! You guys are all terrific in your support and encouragements!
Deleteof theses nice job I have some of these primed and ready to paint. Never played impetus ?
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated, Matt! We enjoy Impetvs. You might too.
DeleteExcellent, beautiful archers...and project!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Phil!
DeleteVery fine Moors Jonathan!

Thanks!
DeleteYes, very nice indeed. A beautiful addition to your project.
ReplyDeleteThank you, William! Good to see you popping in to leave a comment a little more regularly. Much appreciated!
DeleteLove 'em, Jonathan! If there comes a vote, put me down for an AAR featuring your Reconquista forces. Have you tried Impetus 2? I meant to buy that but I'd also like to have an opponent for it too!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Monty!
DeleteYes, BI2.0 has been given a test and I like the changes. An already good game is even better now.
These look great Jonathan!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Rod!
DeleteVery nice archers, I like their skin tone :)
ReplyDeleteThe whole unit look great.
Thanks, Phil! I am no match for you!
DeleteI like them a lot, Jon!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Peter! Very good to get your approval.
DeleteThat is a fine looking unit and I fully intend to steal that pattern on the center archer.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jake! Borrow what you want. Giving even one figure a more complex robe design tend to lift the entire unit. Well, at least to me.
