Revolting Peasants #2

A second unit of Revolting Peasants scurries off the painting table.


They should be useable from the Dark Ages through the TYW/ECW eras. 

They get fancier than they probably deserve with the addition of a spare flag. 


Bread Riot!

I rather enjoyed painting this scruffy lot!

  1. They certainly look just as revolting as the previous bunch, Peter!

  2. Not only do they get a flag but they shop at the same tailor too!

    1. Yes, I kept the coat colors uniform for my own ease of identification.

  7. Great looking peasants, Peter. The unit flags give them a look of credibility on the battlefield too!

    1. They want to be sure their local Lord gives a pension to their widows!

  8. Your joy in painting has come through in the finished unit. Looking great and very dapper. I too was most impressed by their excellent colour-coordination and how much effort the village put into the banner! :)

  9. Is the chap at the back supping an ale? No doubt the whole lot of them are drunk.

    1. I think he's blowing his own horn, although doubtless the ale would be more to his liking!

    1. Thanks, David. I am thinking of using them as Very Inferior troops, perhaps for a ToR game at the small regional HAVOC convention outside of Boston in April.

  11. Splendid looking peasants and a lovely and hopefully removable flag, good with some landsknechts for the German peasants war 1525 too!
