I wouldn't mind a few figures carrying javelins though as I think they may have still been carried at this date.Olihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06796318659076787601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6819465537498177551.post-28786309011336015932011-11-07T00:40:18.488-08:002011-11-07T00:40:18.488-08:00Very nice Oli i have some of these myself very nic...Very nice Oli i have some of these myself very nice they are too.<br /><br />I agree with the light horse problem would be good to see some mtd crossbow/arquebusiers.<br />best wishes<br />WillieWillie Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061421971813106397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6819465537498177551.post-43000975334568006442011-11-06T19:46:33.057-08:002011-11-06T19:46:33.057-08:00Very attractive figures, Oli.

I too had a lot of trouble finding suitable figures for my own Spanish Italian Wars army; I ultimately went with Redoubt, even though they are very large. There is some debate about the armament of Jinetes (also called Genitors for some reason in English)- light lance vs. javelins; may have evolved over time. I believe I read somewhere (maybe Gush?) that the heart shaped shields ("adarga"?) were usually paimted white and edged in red, although I'm sure that was far from absolute (if indeed it is even correct).Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6819465537498177551.post-49414679741693594262011-11-06T17:48:22.992-08:002011-11-06T17:48:22.992-08:00Very nice Oli, hadn't seen the TAG figures in ...Very nice Oli, hadn't seen the TAG figures in the flesh so to speak but they look good.

Can't wait to finish other projects and lay my brush on them :)matheohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877422861472235641noreply@blogger.com
