Title: In times of Charles the Bold
Post by: specialist on March 04, 2018, 17:15:13
Neuss which was besieged by Charles the Bold (without success) is actually my hometown and so here a few "sets" inspired by the period. Using only original parts they only give a feeling of those days and no accurate heraldry. Of course most of the figures would work for Wars of the Roses as well.

Wonderful use of parts, so colourful! This is what knights should look like.

Particularly like the one on the right.

What helmet are you using for the one on the right in the image below?

I really love the color and pattern combinations on the drummers! Wonderful stuff!

The drummers are my favourites too!  8-)

Post by: playmofire on March 12, 2018, 20:45:17
Yes, the drummers are superb, and, too, the trumpeters are very good.

I can imagine them all marching through the city streets with flag bearers alongside twirling and hurling their flags into the air.

@Klickteryx: the helmet comes from one of the Super4-figures.

That helm looks fantastic. I've tried it on some customs too, but I wish that it were included in some other sets.

These customised figures are just wonderful and happy in a colour scheme which reminds me very much of the early Playmobil catalogues. Such a brilliant work which immediately brings a smile on our face  :love: :love: :love:

Lovely customs..

And the ladies in ma-2019-06 (with the rice planter torso) and  ma-2019-04 (with the archer torso) :o

The last one, with the "shoulder thingies", is indeed wonderful. :love: I shall copy your design straight away, but provide him with firmer footwear than these (admittedly gorgeous) courtly shoes.

Thanks for the never-ending stream of inspiration.

Wow, so original! Agree with everyone that the second man with the puffy sleeve/shoulder is great, but also very much like the first man wearing something like a cardigan.
