This from the Perry Miniatures site, painted by Dave Andrews:
I think Michael has based the sculpting of the King and his Standard Bearer on the Graham Turner pictures in the Osprey Bosworth Campaign Series Book, thus the look of Sir Percival Thirwall- in that he is wearing a livery jacket with sleeves instead of his own heraldry. This may or equally may not have been the case.
Both images from the Osprey Cappaign Series Bosworth 1485 Last of the Plantagenets As an aside, it was an age when knighthood didn't have the same resonance as it had earlier in the century when it was seen a a great honour- by the time of the Late C15th some men would try to avoid becoming knights altogether because of the cost! Obviously to others knighthood was still seen as a great honour. Darrell.

Of much interest to me and very timely as well. I know! I can't wait to get my mitts on a box or three- just think of all the conversion possibilities that are possible now- it's about to get better! Great painting and composition. Well you've got the very talented Dave Andrews to thank for the brushwork. Darrell.
