These are more Perry plastics, from the WoTR Infantry box.
I bought two boxes of these, so that I could have three groups of 12 bowmen and the same of billmen/halberdiers. This was to enable me to field forces for the Never Mind The Billhooks rules, as well as for Lion Rampant and also as a Great Kingdoms force for Saga: Age of Magic.
I wasn't too concerned about the livery here. I decided to use a colour palette that pleased me rather than something historically accurate. I think that green and yellow look good together.
I am hoping that they might find a space in my 15th century Italian condottiere's band. I think that bows were used in the Italian states in the period, as well as in France and Burgundy too.
I have two more sets of archers to complete, with different liveries, and then I'll move on to the guys with sharp things on sticks.
I also have 18 more dismounted men-at-arms to paint too, but all that plain metal armour is quite boring to paint.
Looks good to me.
