Empire Swordsmen complete

A regiment started 3 years ago I think, to use the MM60 Fighters models that didn't fit into Pfeildorf's militia or City watch.  It was high time to put an end to it!

This post will be probably the last one dedicated to my Pfeildorfers for a while. I've joined the OWAC III madness, and I'll focus my painting efforts on a brand new army in the coming months.

Rombustus Sellsword

Finally! The last swordsman to join my mercenary company, Rombustus Sellsword.

With some Marauder and Citadel mates:

I'll post pictures of the complete unit soon.

Fighter F15

Not a swordsman, obviously, but I didn't know where else to put this Marauder Miniatures model. Still one model to paint to complete my regiment of mercenary swordsmen :)

Sir Errol de Swash and Fighter F17

A couple of swordsmen, both designed by Aly Morrison. Still two to paint, and I'll be done with my mercenaries...

A closer look on Errol (I really like this model):

Dieter Muller

Small conversion of Dieter Muller, one of the F2 fighters designed by Aly Morrison: I've replaced the mace by a sword, and inserted a trumpet in his closed fist.


My 2019 swordsmen so far:

Talisman and Marauder swordsmen

Same sculptor, same pose, two swordsmen designed by Aly Morrison, the former for Talisman game around 1985, the second for the Marauder Miniatures range around 1988 (a member of the command group MM61).

You may have noticed a slight change in the colours between the two models: I've changed my camera, the new one gives brighter tones (see below).

Fighters F4 and F28

Both coming from the MM60 fighters range, these two references will join my mercenary regiment of swordsmen.




With this last shield, I've tried to complete my attempt to reproduce the ones dispayed in the 3rd edition Warhammer Armies book. Below the original picture:

 

 And the painted results:

Empire archers finished

After the crossbowmen and the scouts, my third regiment of shooters  is finally done: a bunch of Pfeildorf's citizen, gathered to defend the walls of the city.

 A closer look on the 5 last painted models:

Empire archer #9: the Hooded Man

One of the last unreleased Marauder Miniatures I've been able to grab in the last few years, the "hooded man" is a welcome addition to Pfeildorf's shooters, considering that we have only three models of archers available in the whole Marauder range (you've already seen them a couple of times).


About models you've already seen, third (and last) version of citizen CZ18:

Empire archers #7 and 8

Again, two models already painted in the past. Marauder Fighters MM60, references F10 and F19.

Empire archer #6

Back on Pfeildorf's archers. I'll try to complete the second half of the my unit started last year in the coming weeks.


Marauder citizen CZ18. Second time I paint this model. Nothing much to say about it.

Marauder Giant MB7

At last! Three months and a half to complete this monster. It already fell twice, and I still need to touch up a few things in the back and on the barrel. Anyway... final pictures:
