28mm Italian Wars Papal Army - Troops on Parade

[@themobius8077]

Amazing collection of figures. I have completely agree with the sentiment regarding the ease at which Perry figures paint up as I have painted 500 odd and still feel like doing it all again for the Italian Wars,

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks, I dont think I will ever stop adding to this army. I did this vid a few years ago and the army is at least half as big again.

[@thelonelybolter8245]

this army looks absolutely incredible! Love it, fabulous job!!!

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks, this video is a couple of years old now, I must get round to doing an update video with all the extra stuff 👍

[@unaccomplishedwargamer8716]

A lot of really hard work and hours at the painting table there. Everything is stunning. Figures, bases, flags, all really well done. Thank you so much for sharing your collection!

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks very much for your kind comments 👍

[@sandtable8091]

Excellent job. I do the same with bases. Marching figures for instance have a standard base depth but presenting to fire, especially with fixed bayonets, get deeper stands. Never had a problem in a game and it saves bending the weapons.

[@YarkshireGamer]

It's a good idea, but these weapons don't bend as the Pikes are sharp steel 😉 its just as much to protect the player as it is the figure 😆

[@vonketteringham]

Fantastic collection of lovely looking units, we need to see more of your projects! Well presented, informative and very good camera work. Even a mention of Peter Gilder, excellent 👍👍

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks very much, I am new to the video thing and sometimes forget to do one for each project. More coming up. Will try and do 1 Troops on Parade feature each month 👍

[@warpaintjj]

Lovely collection. The flags & bases really unify the different manufacturers despite being slightly different sizes. This is such a colourful period one could be tempted to pick it up again after many years.

[@YarkshireGamer]

It was one of the first periods I ever did in 15mm back in the day. Its been a joy to do it again. By keeping the same manufacturers in the same unit I think it works

[@paulhowes1396]

They all look fantastic together in massed formations. Lovely Hobby Style Work! Wonderful to View! BB

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks Paul, welcome to Yarkshire Gamer 👍

[@62seano]

What a beautiful Army, you have done a fantastic job on those.

[@YarkshireGamer]

Very kind Cheers

[@leont66wargaming31]

Fantastic work mate. Great looking army

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks very much Leon 👍

[@ww2killerk]

Beautiful army man, when it comes to the Italian states, Rome is always my favorite

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks Kaleb, welcome to Yarkshire TV👍

[@warpaint9385]

Quite amazing. Looking at Italian Wars myself and keep tossing up between 15mm or 28mm. Haven't decided yet.

[@YarkshireGamer]

So many nice ranges in 28mm it's hard to go smaller.

[@music123videos]

Wonderful stuff, can't believe I've missed your channel for so long!

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks, youre here now, welcome 👍

[@Samuelkelly90]

These are superb. Ive been following your progress in the challenge and has been a big inspiration for my Italian wars army. Although even with various Airbrush cheats I can't paint half as fast as you...

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers Sam, slow and steady wins the race 👍

[@KNWIII]

Amazing army. Thank you for sharing so much detail!

[@YarkshireGamer]

No problem, good to know people are enjoying the videos 👍

[@thekameleon9785]

Can't get enough of these

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers, its an old video now but still gets loads of views.

[@thekameleon9785]

See my channal as well. You just convinced me to do 28mm. Damn you😉

[@maryhinge6334]

Just found your channel. These guys look fantastic. You should get more than a few good games out of these. Hopefully lots more vids like this to come. 🤞

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks for the kind words, just found a really good campaign system as well so lots of games coming up 👍

[@TitusCastiglione1503]

A gorgeous looking army! Perchance, is this meant to represent the forces of Cesare Borgia?

[@YarkshireGamer]

Hi Stuart, many thanks for the kind comments. The army does indeed represent, in part, the Army of Cesare 👍 there are later units in there too from the Warrior Pope Julius II.

[@steveharbour845]

Excellent stuff Ken. Have heard you talking about this on the podcast. Inspiring stuff. Need to finish a load of Napoleonic stuff for CrackCon 2. Then I might have to indulge,

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers Steve, the video is a couple of years old now and the army has grown a bit since. If you are at Crack Con 2 you will get to see the Army in the flesh 👍

[@steveharbour845]

@@YarkshireGamer Stunning. Can't wait. Been listening to podcast from day one and was part of the big Napoleonic game at CrackCon last year. Definitely a fan of big games

[@philRminiatures]

Abbbbbbbbbbbbbbsolutly superb, what a splendid army, command stands are awesome and rare, colorful and beautiful units, great painting and basing...What's not to like? 👍👍👍

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks very much Phil.

[@gabzgaming5991]

Beautiful looking units nicely done sir

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thank you, it amazes me it still gets hits 4 years on 👍

[@bulldoggo4374]

Have you seen the SteelFistMiniatures Gendarmes mounted and on foot, they look amazing and would fit in well I think.

[@YarkshireGamer]

I have thanks, this video is a couple of years old now and the army has had lots more added to it, including some Steel Fist 👍 like you say, great miniatures

[@thekiwiwargamer3136]

Great work mate, it would take me years to paint all that!

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers Kiwi, I am amazed that I got so much done during the challenge.

[@leggi001]

Inspired me when I saw your army, as I was just starting out on the same. Could you do a video on your basing technique, or advise what the grey basing material is? Many thanks, Ian Legg

[@YarkshireGamer]

Hi Ian, if you have a look at the Tutorial below the basing bit starts around 1hr.30. This is a desert base but the technique is the same just change the colour for the base to Miniature Paints Earth Brown and drybrush Vallejo Iraqi Sand kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXvSaIeEq5aNq6M

[@stephensmith1256]

Stunning collection beautifully painted.

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks very much 👍

[@joesteers1940]

They look great! Wish I had half the skill you do !

[@YarkshireGamer]

Very kind of you Joe, many thanks and welcome to Yarkshire Gamer 👍

[@theenigmaticgamer]

Excellent video and a beautiful army! With you 100% on the deep front bases and the measuring comment. Looking forward to seeing more from you. Subbed too.👍

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers, thanks for joining Yarkshire TV 👍

[@monumentstosuffering2995]

Magnificent work. Nice thin bases too.

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks 👍🏼

[@ignacejespers8201]

How do you transport your pike blocks? Don't they take a lot of space? Othrwise this army looks simply stunning

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks do you mean away from the table ? In that case as I have my own games room they don't often go anywhere. I store them in "Really Useful Boxes" I line the bottom of the box with card and then put wooden dividers in to seperate the units and stop them from being moved around when carried. The figures themselves are mounted 8 to a base so all the units in this video are only 6 bases 👍

[@VictorumGaming]

Fantastic!

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks very much 👍

[@MedievalWargamer]

Brilliant!!!love the army!subscribed!

[@liberator2408]

Fantastic army mate

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers 👍

[@jeandesroches1523]

I believe you need a better sound. I can hardly hear you. The figures are excellent Sir a beatiful army.

[@YarkshireGamer]

Thanks, this video is about 3 years old, you get better as you do more, this was one of my first videos, its very popular so I'm not going to delete it just because I've got better at making videos. We all start somewhere.

[@julianankers1928]

Great showcases i wanted to ask what size are you bases the cavalry on thank you

[@YarkshireGamer]

Hi Julian, Cavalry are based on 50 x 60 👍

[@benjaminwaterhouse4879]

Lovely stuff

[@YarkshireGamer]

[@basicminiaturepainting]

Wonderful looking army

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers 👍

[@BrushQuill]

Gorgeous army. Im dead jealous

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks, its proved very popular 👍

[@NicGamz]

Wow,,, just epic sir! Insta sub here. :)

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers 👍

[@nasenfischlp9929]

Awesome... Where did you buy these miniatures?

[@YarkshireGamer]

From various conpanies, Perry Miniatures, Wargames Foundry and The Assault Group, the painting and basing is all down to me 👍

[@BigMrFirebird]

If you need any more Papal command figures, why not consider the Spanish Inquisition figures from Victoria Miniatures? Trust me, you'll like 'em :)

[@YarkshireGamer]

Oh yes, they are lovely. I will pick then up one day. The army haa grown a lot since this was done

[@frankdoyle3716]

WOW!

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks 👍

[@Catubrannos]

According to the 6mm fans you can't do decent pike blocks in the larger scales. Armies like yours prove otherwise.

[@YarkshireGamer]

Many thanks, big units of big figures are always the best 😁

[@artourious6346]

very nice..

[@YarkshireGamer]

Cheers

[@pbeccas]
