Isn't Paul Hicks already sculpting a range, or is that an earlier period? |

Do you mean the Claymore Castings HYW/Otterburn range? Just Add Water Painting and Wargaming Blog: link La Journee HYW Warfare- Painting & Wargaming Blog: link Gewalthaufen- Late C15 to Early Renaissance Blog: gewalthaufen.blogspot.co.uk |

Them's the ones. Wrong era I take it? |

If you want to have them look their best, I'd contact the guy that sculpts the claymore range, he does amazing stuff, I saw a Saxon leader he did for footsore. And his quality shows there too. If I had a million laying around, I'd know I'd use him for a range. |

Two Men in a Trench discovered lead bullets on the battle site. It seems the Scots either employed arquebusiers from their own or from the Continent. Worth a thought! |

I rather like the Assault Group range. Do you plan to make these compatible? |

Doesn't Assault Group only do the English army? I'd love to see this project come to life! |
Puster  | 20 Oct 2019 1:12 a.m. PST |
Assault Group does English for the later era, around 1540 – mainly the campaign of Henry at Boulogne in 1544. TAG also has a fine French range aimed for that era. In 1513 the armies would look different. There is a nice contemporary for the battle of Guinegate 1513 that shows continental outlooks of the time. Afaik the english army left behind was a tad less modernized. A very fine plan, Atheling! I hope you succeed! |

Remember the old Military Modelling article in one of the specials had illustrations by the great Rick Scollins. Superb illustrations.
Hope these are of use! |

I've taken the plunge with other mfgs. I just started the project using Dixon, Pete's Flags, Redoubt, Northumbrian Painting Service, Old Glory and a few figs from Steel Fist. Mixing and matching may not be for everyone but I am kind of enjoying it. There are some size differences but I can work with most of them. |
Dave001812 | 07 Apr 2022 2:55 a.m. PST |
Think I will go down the Dixon route, had a look at the Northumberland range and quite like them but not sure what to use for English cavalry ? Reivers probably ! |
rampantlion | 07 Apr 2022 9:14 a.m. PST |
Dave, I just received my order from Redoubt and they seem to be pretty compatible with the Dixon figs. I expected them to be larger than they were. The sculpting style is similar. The billmen from Redoubt at least are almost a perfect match with the Dixon ones that I bought. They also mix with the Pete's Flags figs well in size and style. The Steel Fist figs are a little bigger and the Northumbrian figs are larger with a bulkier sculpting style. I can email you a couple of photos if you like, just let me know. |

Thank you, that's interesting |

auction This Pete's Flags man seems to have done part of a Flodden to Pinkie range by Nick Collier which are supposed to go with the TAG renaissance ranges. |
