I have finished the retinue of John de'Rainham: he's the handsome chap on the far back left of the pic.
It's a standard 24 point host with:
1. Mounted Men at Arms (back left with lance)
2. Mounted Sergeants (middle left)
3. Foot Men at Arms (front left)
4. Foot Sergeants (right rear with spears)
5. Crossbowmen (foot right)
The cavalry is made from a box of
Veus Dult Mounted Sergeants for £20.
And the infantry from a box of
Foot Sergeants which cost £35.
You get 48 minis in the infantry box so I still have 18 leftover.
I bought Battle Flag shield transfers specially made for this range. These are expensive so I only got one sheet and created the other shield designs by painting and leftover transfers from various models.
Delineation of the hard plastic models is good and they respond well to a thin coat of Army Painter tinted varnish - as shown on the armour in this photo.
