Wars of the Roses 28mm project (part one)

This is another 28mm Wars of the Roses Earl of Warwick unit I decided to build and paint. My old one was a much larger 44 figure unit, but after reading an old Wargames Illustrated back issue which included some smaller Bosworth units fielded by the Perry's I decided on using their example. Units are mixed archers and men at arms at 50/50 with archers at the front initially who then fall back behind the men at arms after firing. The article states they would then normally draw their hand weapons to support the forward section in melee.

All the figures in the photos are Perry Miniatures plastics, with the Warwick banner by Pete's Flags (available from eBay).
