sails to the Skeleton Seas, and finds inspiration as she goes.
We've added a few extra troop types to our 10mm Elizabethan range! Commissioned by forum member d_guy and sculpted by Phil, these provide some handy extra options for the later 16th Century period in Ireland. From d_guy's blog…
The figure styles are somewhat of a compromise, and while they are typical for Ireland from 1570-1600, they are usable at least back to 1500. This means that to the most knowledgeable, a few anachronisms creep-in for a few of the figures and for these I take full responsibility. The jackets (ionar) changed in style significantly over the 16th Century, and I wanted figures that could be altered a bit with painting. I also wanted to be able to use these figures to represent Highlanders in the same period. The Gallowglass easily fit the bill and we have added folded plaids (cloaks, mantles) which can be painted in a tartan pattern if one wishes. Likewise, many of the new figures can represent Redshanks.
