Yellow Knight and retinue

As I have told in the previous post, my formerly stripped medieval collection is slowly reaching its numbers again. It is the well-known feeling in wargamer circles that urges one to switch to another project - the same thing happened to me.

During the days of my internship I had less hours to do something, especially that I worked on Fridays which are otherwise free days on university most of the time. So I took with me a handful of figures each week to work on, from home to the university dormitory I dwell in, plus the pots of paint and brushes. I have a quite nice travelling hobby pack now.

But on to the figures, they are all Zvezda from various sets (peasant army - HYW English knights - HYW English infantry - HYW French infantry). The centerpiece is the mounted knight, with two foot knights, a handful of men-at-arms, archers and peasant levy, As seen before on the pages of this blog, these groups are perfect for skirmish actions.

Finished - Jackewline yellow dragoons + 10k hits!

Fitting both for the earlier civil war and war of independence era. The Jackewlinese name 'Vraqsul' originates from 'vraquyr / vrakech', dragon. With these lot from Zvezda my yellow clan army is almost complete (it lacks volunteers, skirmishers, a freshly raised regiment in white coats and a cuirassier regiment) and already fields a considerable amount of force (an artillery battery, a foot, a dragoon and a heavy dragoon regiment).

The box contains 18 figs and horses. 3 are dismounted. These are very good skirmishers and can 'mount' in a game if necessary. The other 15 are mostly depicted with swords drawn.

Command and first rank.

And yeah, ten thousand hits... Very nice. Thank you all. I found no way to actually celebrate this, so my advice is for you to keep on reading and I will keep on posting.

Finished - Jackewlinese yellow/blue artillery crew

The only problem is... I ran out of coins for bases, so these are cardboard circles cut out with a knife. When mounted on the base of the gun it's not that horrible though.

Yellow first, three per gun, 15 in total.

Finished units - yellow heavy dragoons

Almost lost one fig when mounting them, but he's come around in the end, so everything's fine. These are the Italeri Prussian Garde du Corps figs painted as yellow clans' heavy dragoons.

The only problem with these guys is the fact how rare they are, ordered them from the US. Another batch will be painted as green heavies.
