On the hunt for more figures for the Irish wars, I came across the Pendraken Miniatures range of 28mm Elizabethan Irish, I am not a fan of purchasing blind and a search of Google produced limited image results but at 96p each, I thought I would take a punt.
(L to R) Irish Cavalry in Mail, Irish Light Horse, English Petronel, English Demilancer.
(L to R) Irish Caliverman in English Service, Kern with Caliver, Scottish Redshank.
(L to R) Irish Officer, Gallowglass, Ulster Kern.
(L to R) Irish Light Pikemen, Irish Kern with Bow, Horse boy with Javelin.
An interesting range of figures, very little flash, clearish mold lines, closer in style to old Vendal (Sgt Major Miniature) range than the crisper Foundry and Warlord ranges, they do seem rather larger than some of the Irish figures in my collection but they should fit in ok once based and painted.
Very nice, can't wait to see what you do with them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting these.
ReplyDeleteThe cavalry look nice, I'm not sure about the proportions on the infantry however, they look a little too much like chess pieces for my liking.
