The Thirteen Years' War 1454–1466: Teutonic City Guards unit 2 #1

Hello friends!

Thanks to the kindness of my friends at STYRIWAR, I am continuing the The Thirteen Years' War 1454–146 series.

I received a large number of models representing men-at-arms from the second half of the 15th century.
        They will be used for the next Teutonic units – mercenaries, crossbowmen, and another unit of city guards (the first one I made from Perry Miniatures models, which you could also see in Wargames Illustrated Wi442, in the article about the Polish-Teutonic conflict).

       And today, the first three test soldiers from the second unit of the City Guard, along with the commander, painted a few months ago.

I'm working on the next four and will return with the entire small unit in a while!
