Hello Guys!

Yes, it is an Angle-scottish faction.

ENglish will be: Heavy cavalry, heavy infantry and longbow (of course)

Scots: med infantry with 2 hadned swords (Gallowsglass) and light multitask infantry, the KERN , from wikipedia: "Every kerne had a bow, a "skieve" or quiver, three spears, a sword, and a skene(knife)".Kern will be the modular unit, similar to the spanish light infantry. However there are many depections of them using 2 handed axe, i guess those will be a different set (axe + skene only) while the others will be focused on ranged (trhowing spears, shield, sword, and bow)

SO, i am here also, to share pictures of the first unit: heavy cavalry!!

I like everything about those except the ears. I understand why you did it, but they are basically begging for their ears to get cut off with them outside the helmet like that. Maybe you could provide an alternate head without the exposed ears?

i guess i will make the ears completely covered, like the horse ears, yes, you are not the first noting it.

first i made them more covered, but some patreon considered it too chunky, i should have stylised them in other way.

I will do the covered variant later on

I can understand it. You want to show the ears to prove they're elves. But man, those are some ears.

I like 'em. I don't know enough about Tudor/Stuart(?) armour to see what you tweaked (apart from the tall dragon helms, maybe) but I get a kick out of them.

haha i like the warcfraft style elf ears, they are big compared to lotr ones. Lotr ears and easily be hiden in helmet, but the bigger ones should have a protecion like the horse armor.

i will fish it with the heavy infantry

Just curious, has anyone painted any of the Buffalo cavalry? I'd actually really love to see what they look like painted.

Maybe make the helmet decoration a bit larger so that the wings provide the front protection to the ears?

I've got a buffalo cavalryman I plan on painting soon.

We'll see if anyone beats me to it!

erramir is working on adding ear protection to the helmets

AAaannnd here they are!





NETX: longbowmen

I don't need too many more minis at this point, but I'm tempted to see how some of those convert up as White Lions.

yes, the goal was to provide a white lion + sword master options.

now i am working in longbows.

and then will make light infantry with short range proyectiles (javelins/darts, short bow) (the Scottish Kerns)

In other release i will make the billmen, and they should be the equivlaent to the simple elf spearmen

Longbowmen are herrre!

FInally we have a scottish unit: the gallowglass infantry

Elfs foot command group:





Mounted commander:

The elves remain interesting (I like those Gallowglas guys) but I'm not feeling the hair on the deer, TBH.

Oh, i made the deer in winter version when they have thicker hair. You would have preferred it like the horses? smooth surfaced?

I think the deer hair would look better clumped, in the way that most mini sculptors like to do fur. Either a kind of 'scale' effect with lots of visible clumps, or mostly smooth with edges of ragged texture (like a lot of cartoonists draw fur).

Also, the edges on the mail need to be sorted out. It looks like there are partial rings showing.

Hello guys! after august-september relaeses (artillery) i am back to troops, and this month, (october)is turn of elfs again! Patreons voted elfs with turko-mongol aesthethics.

THe first unit is the medium armored mounted archer, pack of 5

That's an interesting take, very cool pieces!

You should make at least one Turkish Turkey

You should make at least one Turkish Turkey

A turkish turkey antropomorphic creature

:::::::::::::::::

Last releases: pack of 6 light infantry and pack of 3 light mounted archers

Really cool models. Gobbos and elfs are my favourites.

I really like the light infantry.

Hello guys! after some time i will make a post updating what is going on!

I have been preparing a kickstarter campaign t[hat will launch on APRIL 20. THe main theme will be a second wave of units for THE EMPIRE, and, as stretch goals, units to make a contingent /core units of Cossacks ("K1$L3V"). https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/joygamesinteractive/the-holy-roman-empire



There are 59 models in the basic pledge of $30, +3 for those who get the early access (50 slots). Those 3 models are the "Character pack", whichfeatures 1 battle mage, and 2 historical figures: Emperor Maximilian I, and Gotz Von Berlichingen.

The 59 models: half were december releases on patreon: https://i.imgur.com/hDwOAyc.png (not available anymore) and the other half are to-be released in the KS campaign. Here is the detailed list and pictures of the second wave: https://www.patreon.com/posts/48304671
