Hussites (IV/80)

Here are some images of my new Hussite army. The figures are all Essex - I did a few conversions particularly among the blades and then they were painted by my good friend, Peter Callan. Most challenging was recreating the image of Jan Zizka - I wanted the figure to look as much like the Angus McBride painting (cover of Osprey's 'The Hussite Wars') as possible. It involved substituting a different head, green-stuffing (is that a verb ?) a bandage over his blind eye, removing a spear and scratch-building his mace. I think it turned out well. The War Wagons are from an Australian manufacturer "Evil Gong' miniatures - 40mm exactly across, brilliant !! The 12 elements comprise 1 x 3Kn (Gen), 1 x 2LH, 5 x WWg, 4 x 4Bd and 1 x Art.
