Burgundians Siege works (I)

As I obliquely referenced last time, there is plan afoot to put on a demo game at Partizan show in May, based on the Battle of Morat. This will include using all my figures and I am now on a deadline, which feels a lot closer than it really is, to expand my Swiss army and to create some seige lines for the Burgundians. These will be a static disply at one side of the table. The references for these will be images from contemproary chronicles of seiges, there were plenty shown in the Swiss Berne chronicles and elswhere. I recently purchased the excellent and highly recommended book by Graham Turner on the Wars of the Roses and I'm also using his painting of the siege of Bamburgh castle too.

So first start on this has been made, with a vignette of some figures from Graham's painting transposed to Morat. A herald is startled by the firing of a seige gun. The other picture are a few crossbowmen who'll be making their way to the palisaded fence. These are Perry conversions, with a couple of Steel Fist bodies included. At the moment the plan is for 3 adjoining bases of A4 size.

More will follow as I make progress.
