I think I have used figures from all the usual manufacturers.

Another massive formation. And once more I would like to see a picture with all your painted TYW figures.

Yes, ells10, another big impressive unit
Some questions. Usually the red colour is more associated with the Imperial troops and not the Swedes. Also, the flag has German mottos. So, what unit are you aiming for?
I know it's a bit touchy (constructive critics only, please), but I have a slight incomfort with most of your units because to me they look too homogeneous at a time when there were no uniforms yet (just some distinguishing colour items). On the other hand, I could never paint so many troops, the more so if they had different colours for each figure :-)
So I take my hat off and bow
Cheers
Michael

Thank you Michael for your comments, the flag does look German but when I put it on Google translate it picked it up as Swedish. Also with this unit you can see a mix of head coverings ranging from helmets, felt hats and wool caps. I will try and locate my notes regarding this unit. Cheers have a good Christmas.
