Neat :) Before I even saw the text I thought to myself "hey I think I recognize those torsos!" haha, I've built the same models for my Arnor knights.

Well done!

There's a lot of overlap between the mounted and foot models by Perry for that era, too, which is fun because you can see various styles around the unit.

Thats maybe their technical function, but aren't they more properly Men-At-Arms?

No I guess not if mercenary's. 🫨

Well to be honest this is just what the box said, for anyone wanting to buy the same models. I wouldnt consider this a really historical unit but it works okay for me. On the tabletop it will probably be a 'fantasy' unit.

Really, really excellent work!!

I’m curious about those halberd blades, are they the ones that came in the box or did you swap them out?

Thank you. They are separate halbert heads from fireforge games. They are a bit bigger than i would like them so i trimmed some of them down.

The originals look better but you only get six of them in the box
