Gents after painting 200 Landsknechts I am now starting on my Cavalry. Can anyone point me to a painting guide for these chaps for the Holy Roman Empire as opposed to French or Italian? Many thanks, Tally Ho! |

Cheers Bob, I am also after something more early 16th Century. Whilst the Foundry Gendarmes look great a lot of the stuff I can find on the interweb has the Germans/Austrians/Imperial in plain "silver" armour both man and beast rather than the decorative French and Italian look. Tally Ho! |

I think the style of armour used was very individual, there may well have been a tendancy for more 'Augsburg' fluting on Imperial Men-at-Arms, but I dont think it was uniform!!! |

I sent you another couple of articles that had some earlier stuff in them. But most of what I have is for a bit later. |

Does something like this help? You can look for more works by him and at larger resolution, but the period is sort of right, I think.

I wouldn't quite call it a painting guide but here's a couple of hints on the subject on my blog; link hope that helps Stuart |
begins his series on how to paint a 15mm DBA army well, in a reasonable time frame.
