Swedish Allmoge rebased at last
What would be better than to share a bunch of pictures of my, at last, re-bases Swedish Allmoge soldiers on the National Day of Sweden June 6th :)
I´ve always been told that we celebrate our National Day on the June of 6th as the Swedish King Gustav I of Sweden was elected King on June 6th 1523 and thereby ending the Kalmar Union, not sure that is the truth, but it sounds good to me and it give´s me a reason to glorify the Swedish Allmoge that helped Gustav I to beat the Danes in a rebellion.
Short history lesson today,here are the pictures of the re-based Allmoge 15th centery style.

Beautiful work as usual, most impressive!
ReplyDeleteWonderful collection Micke, what a huge job this must have been! Lovely result with the rounded corners on the bases.
ReplyDeleteAwesome sight of figures and bases! The units look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe flags/Banners look great as well!
Excellent rebasing project!!
Looking good...
ReplyDeleteStunning! Your hard work is well-rewarded. Marvelous figures and basing. I'm waiting on yet another Likto order to re-base my French HYW army. Lots of mounted and foot knights & MAA. I plan to have standards/banners mounted separately so the troops themselves can be generic and used in different armies/scenarios. Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean !
DeleteGood luck with your re-basing project:) I to have banners loese so I can swich nobles in command of the Allmoge, each banner man have a small tube that can hold the brasswire I use for my banners.
Best regards Michael
This is an incredible amount of work done, Michael! They are now fantastic, really nice mass of troops!
ReplyDeleteLooks fantastic. Really like the basing and the fabric flags add a nice medieval touch.
ReplyDeleteOh Michael they look fabulous, well done Sir.
ReplyDeleteReally like the look of those new bases, you did a fantastic job rebasing them. I always liked this medieval collection of yours and now its even better.
ReplyDeleteBased, bright and beautiful, baby! Your banners put these fine fellows right over the top.
ReplyDeleteVery well done Michael! I really hate re-basing.
ReplyDeleteMoi
ReplyDeleteStunning colors and size of the fight still life.
Great to see the history of the Nordic countries in these pages
What an impressive sight!

And indeed very fitting with Allmoge on Sweden's National Day.

What a truly epic sight Michael – all those masses of troops look like a real army. Simply stunning.
ReplyDeleteThey look superb Michael and definitely worth the effort.
ReplyDeleteVery, very impressive and looking at them now, I would say it was worth the effort re-basing them all.
ReplyDeleteA superb collection that tie-in together and you can see, actually belong to the same army.
As splendid as ever :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much mateys !
ReplyDeleteIt was quite some work but I think it absloutely was worth it in the end, sorry I didn´t go ahead an based them like this in the begining, it actually was one of the options back then to, but I suppouse I was to lazy painting the 4th mini and also listened a bit to much to other gamers, then to the historical sources. But now it is all fixed up:)
Best regards Michael
