From an Italian Wars fan, those are simply amazing. Great job with them. Gotta love gendarmes, the panzers of their time period. |

There is nothing left out, and nothing to add. Superb work, both in writing the review and especially in painting :-) Perhaps one could add that the Foundry riders mix well with Perry horses. |

Thank you, Mr Puster: you are a genius. I hadn't thought of putting the Foundry riders on Perry horses to get a bit more variation, and it just so happens that I've got a few half-bard kits for the Perry sets knocking about somewhere |

Very nice. But hardly lots! |

I have a load of Perry plastic sprues from the 1450-1500 range, but has not thought about the ability to mix in Steel Fist. These are among the best Perry I have seen on display. |

Probably the best review of renaissance gendarmes I've ever read. The presentation is superb. Thank you for sharing. And yes, Perry horses and Foundry riders mix well.  |

The gendarmes look really impressive! I must look at the Steel Fist website to see what all they make. Grelber |

Super nice. Love the subtle work on the caparisons. |

Actually Steel Fist & Perry or Foundry do not mix that well, as Steel Fist horses are just a bit larger – and you would have to shave off some saddle as the rider/mount connection is different.
If you want to represent a mixed unit with destriers (SteelFist) and coursers they will be fine, though. Perry and Foundry probably mix so well because the Perrys sculpted the Gensdarmes (&Landsknechts) for Foundry. |
