This is Crecy Models 54mm English Archer at the battle of Crecy, 1346 A.D.
I won´t be painting the figure for a while, but thought I´d show what you get for your money.
The model came well protected by foam in a card box.
The smallest parts were packed in a little stiff plastic-bag.
The body is simple a one-piece casting.
Left hand and bow are cast together.
A piece of cotton thread will have to be found to string the bow.
Left and right arms, a buckler, quiver-bag, a couple of edged-weapons and a mallet.
You get a choice of two heads.
I think the face has a suitably youthful look to it.
A small hand-axe and 4 arrows are included.
The arrows have no fletchings and the shafts are very soft.
´
I´ll not be using them, but will make my own instead.
That hand axe and mallet may have been used to fashion a defensive work of sharpened stakes.
A selection of 4 is included.
Ofcourse, a base is supplied to mount them and the figure on.
All in all, a nice simple kit that I look forward to finishing one day.
