I painted up a Barony Miniatures Knight and used one of the unbarded horses from their line to make him look more like an early 13th century knight for first Baron's Wars (Magna Carta) era. They really paint up well and have a lot of character. I did a quick block paint job on him but have not applied the dip yet. The heraldry is from the Dering Roll. Here is the link: link |

Allan, a great start and a secret period for me! I have the armies of the Edward I and the Scots in 25mm Irregular Miniatures. But seeing your figures makes me want to get some new more modern figures, although having said that the old irregular minis were very good for their time |

Marcus, I am also a fan of the Edward I vs. Scots. I have both armies done in 15mm and am working on them for 28mm. My plan is to do a 700th anniversary game for Bannockburn at one of the cons next year. As for the early 13th century, I love this period…the Albigensian Crusades, Magna Carta, Bouvines, and some interesting action in Spain as well at this time. The knight that I took a photo of is #39 out of about 56 that I need. Still a ways to go! BTW, I like Irregular, they are nice figs, but a little small nowadays. Allen |

Those horses look very much like the current Old Glory horses. I wonder if they've used the same sculptor. |

Not sure about that Henry, but I have a fair number of both and the Barony ones seem larger. |
