New Model Army Pt 5

A change from military types..a part of the Camp. Wether it will stay as a single stand or be re-based as part of a larger base..time will tell.

Both bods were part of the Imex Eastern friendly Indians set and have had a bit of scalpel work done on them.

Below, William during conversion. The head and hands are from the Zvezda Medieval Peasant Army set, which is turning out to be, along with the Airfix Robin Hood set, one of my favourites sources for conversions. 

Note to self; Do something about the camera settings..the photos appear over lit.

 Sir Bodfrey´s Standard bearer

The entire command group

Next, I mentioned something about it in the last post, a part of Sir Bodard´s Camp.

A New Model Army Pt3

Two more additions to the NMA. Sir Bodfrey (a Cousin of Sir Bodard) and sir Bodard´s standard bearer.

Both are Valdemar Bods........and Nags 

 

Looking through the bits box I realised there was a possible conversion for use in Sir Bodard´s camp (and possibly for other periods as well) so before I lost the vision it had to be done straight away....so it will appear soon. 

A New Model Army Pt 2

 So, Part two. A new trumpeter and a Advisor

Sir Bodhard decided his Trumpeter was too slow on foot so gave him a small payrise and gave him a nag. 

The Top half of the bod is from the Italeri Medieval challenge set

Bottom half....???. It came out of the spares box. 

The Nag from the  Valdemar Medieval Army on the March set.

Most difficult of the conversion was removing the banner from the trumpet and replacing it with a paper one.  

 

The Bod is from RedBox Hussite artillery set.   His arm with the Hawk is taken from  Streltsi Bonus Figure that came with the Strelets Stamford bridge set. 

Nag is from the Caeser  Medieval Knights (Crusaders)

The dog? It´s metal and I have absolutely no idea of where I got it.

Anyway, with his hawk and hound, it looks like the advisor, Sir Lhess (first name Clew) likes hunting. 

A New Model Army

So, I´m back! It appears Blogger has changed some settings which I´m not yet used to, one being how to set up the text, I can´t work out how to  left align the text.Any way.. after a long break, explanation underneath, I´ve decided to create a small medieval army which will be under the command of one personality. My usual carry on is to paint up a boss kniggit, maybe have a standard bearer and one or two men-at-arms but this time I`m going for a complete army. As far as possible most of the bods will be conversions..at least headswops,  unless I haven´t painted the bods in thier original unconverted form before....or as far as I can remember wether I did or not.
