At last I've finally finished and based the complete Norfolk and
Howard’s units, with the modest archer conversions, as flagged in an
earlier post. They are a mix of Perry and Essexs with some head swaps and scratch-built wrapped bows and arrow bags. I’m happy with the result, I think the figures gel and look like a coherent unit.
And here is the complete ward, a mix of Howard and Norfolk.
All marching, to represent the sense that Howard//Norfolk, arrived late on the day. And as noted before, with Howard as commander, given the records are unsure as to whether the
elderly Norfolk made it to the battle.
Next up an Audley unit to augment York, and some WIP on some
Scottish mercenaries which Queen Margaret raised and brought south. Planning to kitbash these, and have already bought all the bits but now see the Perry's have added C15th Irish to their WoR's range, including Gallowglasses, which would be suitable. But I fancy the challenge and can't justify more purchases.
