Some BG from my HYW French army (new bgs...)

I've finished my French Medieval Army for HYW. This is some kind of logical end of it...
Miniatures are form Corvus Belli, Essex, some Donnington and cannon from OldGlory.
Some images have surplus photos, but it is my true problem, I can't decide what do I want to choose as final result, so I usually put them all. :)

Part of the miniatures are old, and maybe you've already seen them, but their photos are new, so do not be surprised.

P.S. Don't forget to click Image on image... :wink:
P.P.S. I'll be happy to receive your direct commission works, so welcome to my site to see all the works: http://littlegreen.uni.me

Very nice, they look like Corvus Belli, is that the case?

Put my Corvus HYW English to shame.

Thank you guys!

French Men-at-Arms are from Essex (plus some hand-weapon conversion)
Spanish Crossbowmen are from Essex
Valets de guerre from Corvus Belli
French Crossbowmen are from Corvus Belli
Brigans are sculpted and converted from Corvus Belli Spearmen
Command base #1 is Corvus Belli and Essex mix
Command base #2 is Corvus Belli and Donnington dog
Camp followers and animals are from Corvus Belli, tent is from, we all loved, Baueda. :)

Really good painting job.
Did you make the terrain, on which the FOG bases are, on your own ? It looks really great too !

Beautiful painting.

Is there much FOG being played in Russia?

Yes. You can see it closer:
Forest 1, Forest2, Forest3, Trees1, Hills, RoughTerrain, RoughTerrain 2
And the gameboard is here:
Game_Board_1, Game_Board_2, Game_Board_3, Game_Board_4, Game_Board_5, Game_Board_6, Game_Board_7, Game_Board_8, Game_Board_9

Not much. But there are a few enthusiasts. :wink:

Very nice painting. I love the smooth results you get. It is impressive and the Essex horses are the best.
Good job!

Thanks you all guys! I'm very glad to hear so good feedback. :)

I live in Krasnodar city. Don't be fooled, because we have a few players in historical wargames. :cry:
But, as far as I know, there are a lot of historical wargames players (and moreover FoG players) in Moscow city and Saints-Petersburg.

That is great. Perhaps we could get a Russian Team to the International Team Competition. This year it will be in Lisbon near the beginning of September.

I'll be very glad to make a battle report when I finish the most part of my army. But I suppose my english level is no so good to write a full report. Anyway I'll try. =)
Maybe I'll post some pictures my opponent's army (HYW-English) soon. He has really very nice minis.

Well, why don't you 'nip up' to Moscow on the nights they play to increase their numbers? :shock:

Thats a really nice board. The tree's look like woodlands scenics, but yours look good. Very nice variation with the flock and such. Beatiful board.

Right too, the trees are really great.
My K&M trees looks basic compare to zendor one.
Anyone knows where to purchase such trees ?

Alternatively, you can do the trees yourself
