Two simple conversions, a body halves swop to the left and an arm swop to the right |
The bod from the Strelets Medieval levy (1) set carrying the Barrel makers guild flag, the Plaster´s Guild flag is carried by a Redbox Hussite |

The body is from Zvezda´s Medieval peasant army set, the head from Zvezda´s French knights, drum and drum sticks from Revell´s Imperial infantry set. The belt is made from Paper.
Portrait of the Minnesinger (medieval German courtly love poet) with his musicians. Illustration from the Codex Manesse, c.1300.
Showing Drum, pipe, fiddle with curved bow (psaltery)
I´ve been asked a few times to put up pics of the whole collection...I will but it might be next year,,for the Big Army Day (Gloranthan Army blog) on the 14th of June next year. Until then...my medieval army collection so from nearly 2 years ago can be seen HERE
It´s expanded a bit since then, the baggage train is nearly double the size, the same for the Hussites. There´s the new burgundian army, the Normans and El Cid armies. The infantry and cavalry has nearly doubled, the seige park has been added to quite a lot as well, the Crusaders weren´t even in the pictures and there´s a lot more civilians/ "revolting" peasants now.

The drummer conversion is brilliant, and the banner bearers will be a great focal point for your peasant army. Well done that man.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Mike
Most impressive-especially the lengths you went to produce the drummer.
ReplyDeleteVery nice work. Impressive flags too.
ReplyDeleteThat is some fantastic work. The banners you have done are amazing.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Paul and those standards really bring them to life.
ReplyDeleteGreat stuff Paul. What size are those flags? They look like they might be 25mm/1inch squares. I need to make a banner in a hurry and was just wondering.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sean
DeleteClose guess :-D
They are 2.1cm´s tall, the width I have forgotten but it must be about the same (when folded) Probably too big for real scaled down flags but i like BIG flags! :-D
Go to the Dansk Figursspilsforening (on the link or under review and recources to the right) and search out the flags you want. The flags are very generously free from them. Copy onto your PC, then use word to resize. With some, this may take one or two attempts as they come in a block of flags. Then just print, cut out and glue together.

also very kindly, has a huge amount of excellent free flags (Under flag downloads)
Cheers
Paul
I forgot to add..the paper I print the flags on is normal printer paper and that the Grimsby Wargames society now has a tutorial on making flag tranfers
DeleteGreat work, Paul. Loving the conversions!
ReplyDeleteGreat flags and figures, they are two great resources!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic conversions Paul and am really fond of that drummer!
ReplyDeleteVery nice "moving" sculpts. And your gents are adorned nicely too.
ReplyDeletethey are all excellent bods!!!! the only thing is that the drummer should be female, just to make anne happier ;-) apart from that all excellent those conversions have turned some odd looking zvezda poses into some realistic ones! Awsome paul!
ReplyDeleteI intend to steal your ideas, being without sufficient imagination and shame.
