80 Years War miniatures

 

Before The Assault Group (or for short TAG) started sculpting their beautiful Long War range for the early 80 Years War period some years ago, I had started already many years before to collect suitable figures from other branches.

When painted, many of them fit well, although TAG will stay my favourite figures.

I keep buying TAGs' latest issues and will show them on this blog when painted.

Here already several pictures of cavalry from various branches for the first decades of the 80 Years War and one picture of artillery.

Lovely work there and I've loved Morion helmets ever since watching 'The Flashing Blade' tv series as a kid, with one of the best themes ever!
