WotR´s Levy Archers

No specific Livery patterns to start with, I´ve got to get my eye in with this scale, so first off a group of levy archers. Later I plan to make up some household types in the livery of John de Vere 13th earl of oxford.  and then I´ll see what else takes my fancy.
They´re not based yet as I want to get some decent bases for them and not my usual homemade ones

    Thanks Simon.
    Yep, Perry´s. I´ve had them for just under 1 1/2 years now, painted half a dozen up and then got badly distracted. 3 of the archers were painted in june 2011!!!!

    It is amazing what the addition of a small detail like bowstrings does to the appearance and "feel" of a model. Very nice stuff.

    Aren't those nice? I like that there is some variation to the gear and poses so that the rank doesn't looked like drilled musketeers on parade.

      Thanks all. At the moment I´m planning on painting up about 100 at the most...I´ll have to see how it goes alongside all the 1/72nd projects.

      Thanks Pat.
      It looks, or rather appears more difficult than it is, just bristles from a 3" paintbrush glued on using liquid contact glue and then when fixed, snipped to length, there a how to here;
