Elizabethan artillery for Donnybrook

the Irish  are in for a bit of a surprise at this week's Donnybrook clash when this little beauty will be unveiled against my opponents' newly painted Gallowglass. well they will if I get them varnished and based in time.  The crew figures are conversions from the Crann Tara civilian pack  and the gun is an old QT model with Games Workshop wheels.

Crann Tara Elizabethan Light Horse

Elizabethan light horse and character figure for Donnybrook; the figures are from Crann Tara  and in my view the figure wearing the burgonet on the right of the picture holds an uncanny resemblance to Graham the owner of the Crann Tara miniatures.
 I've now finished painting and varnishing eight units for donnybrook and aim to get the bases finished for a game next week. here's a link to the crann tara web pagehttp://www.cranntaraminiatures.co.uk/  cheers Pete

English flags

Here's a pic of the first set of English Tudor  flags, I'll do at least one more set, cheers Pete 

16th Century Irish

Not exactly the Italian Wars but at least the're 16th century. .... I've only got meself to blame for doing these as I've been  tempted by Crann Tara's re-release of the  Graven images Elizabethans and promising more to come. Thanks to Mr. Oliver Green for sending me  some pics of early Irish  flags; now I just need to buy some figures and paint a few flags for the English.  Does anyone know what Mountjoy's flag may have looke dlike?
cheers Pete 

Crann Tara Elizabethans

I ordered a couple of sample packs of these figures and I'm pretty impressed with them. I'm planning on building a force of Elizabethans  to use with the 'To The Banners'   rules from Caliver books which for me work well for the mid to later renaissance. Hopefully Crann Tara's  planned future releases are as good as those  currently available; if so these will be the figures I'll be using
