Victrix devient médiéval

Nouveaux commencements

Nous sommes très heureux d'annoncer que Victrrix commence une nouvelle gamme médiévale, couvrant la période du XIIe au 13ème siècle. Nous avons l'intention de couvrir les armées des croisades, à la fois occidentales et islamiques, suivies par l'Europe féodale, y compris l'Espagne et les guerres de la Reconquista.

Tout au long de ce billet de blog, nous vous montrerons certains des premiers rendus de cette nouvelle gamme, y compris les rendus d'un chevalier chrétien avec diverses options de casque et d'armes, et une sélection de soldats islamiques. Cela comprendra également un très bref aperçu du monde médiéval pour le moment, nous espérons que vous apprécierez!

 

La période médiévale élevée

La période entre les 12ème à 13ème Des siècles fait partie du moyen moyen plus large qui a duré de 1000 à 1300 après JC. Cette époque était remarquable pour d'énormes progrès dans diverses technologies, alors que la population estimée de l'Europe a explosé pendant cette période, passant de 35 à 80 millions entre 1000 et 1347. Une grande partie peut être liée à la Renaissance des 12 ansème Century, une période de changement qui comprenait des transformations sociales, politiques et économiques associées à une revitalisation intellectuelle de l'Europe occidentale à de fortes racines philosophiques et scientifiques. Cela peut être largement considéré comme un âge d'or au cours de la période médiévale.


Le développement de châteaux et de cathédrales a fait avancer la technologie des bâtiments, ce qui a permis la construction de vastes structures en pierre en particulier la complexité croissante des forteresses en pierre a développé l'art de l'artisanat de siège qui, à son tour, a influencé les tactiques et technologies militaires de l'époque. L'infanterie a développé des rôles spécialisés, par exemple la réintroduction de pikemen dans les armées européennes remplissant un rôle anti-condurmie, ou l'utilisation d'arbalètes, de sapeurs ou d'ingénieurs, tous vitaux pour les sieges. L'utilisation croissante des arbalètes au cours des XIIe et XIIe siècles a conduit à l'utilisation de casques à visage fermé, de galets de corps lourds, ainsi que d'armure de cheval, transformant essentiellement le chevalier monté en «réservoir» de la période médiévale.

Chevaliers montés

Les premiers décors sur travail sont quelques chevaliers de la fin du 12e au milieu du 13e siècle portant des surcoats et des chevaux à bardeaux. Barding a commencé à être utilisé vers la fin du XIIe siècle en Europe, mais a commencé à être utilisé plus tôt par les chevaliers occidentaux dans les États du croisé en raison des influences des Byzantins et de la cavalerie musulmane. Cela a ajouté une grande protection pour les chevaux contre les grêles de flèches turques.

 

Il y aura un bon mélange de styles de casque dans l'ensemble englobant le changement du casque conique classique de style normand au casque complet du baril qui est venu vers 1230. tête qui a commencé à apparaître vers 1200.

 

Pour cet ensemble particulier, nous n'avons pas inclus de cuisses qui ont été matelassées sur les cuisses qui ont commencé à apparaître autour de 1220, car cela limiterait les chevaliers pour une utilisation antérieure. Ils peuvent être couverts dans des ensembles ultérieurs.

 

Cet ensemble de chevaliers fonctionnera de la 3e à la 7e croisade, mais en poussant également la bataille de Hattin 1187. Ils peuvent être utilisés comme chevaliers standard non affiliés aux ordres militaires, mais aussi comme des templiers, des hospitaliers, des chevaliers teutoniques et d'autres ordres militaires.

Infanterie musulmane

Nous avons également commencé sur les forces islamiques. Tout d'abord être l'infanterie musulmane avec des lances et des épées qui représenteront les pieds soldats des califats du 11e au XIIIe au XIIIe siècle et des califats de l'ayubide ainsi que de la milice de la ville syrienne, des Andaloussiens en Espagne et peuvent être utilisés plus loin au 7e et au 8ème siècle en tant que pièce des grandes conquêtes islamiques de ces siècles. Les archers de pied seront un ensemble séparé.

 

Avec cet ensemble, nous sommes gong pour une énorme quantité de variation de la tête et de visages de caractère avec des poses d'attaque et d'avance dynamiques. Certaines figures blindées seront sur le cadre de commande et dans un ensemble blindé de suivi.

Ce que l'avenir contient

Bien que ce soit le début d'une nouvelle gamme, nous, chez Victrix, avons l'intention de couvrir les principales factions de la période et nous espérons créer l'opportunité pour les collectionneurs d'avoir le choix des armées adverses dans les différents sphères de conflit tout au long de cette période. 


Les croisades seront évidemment concentrées sur, avec l'intention de publier des décors pour les armées chrétiennes et musulmanes, comme indiqué ci-dessus. De plus, cela liera bien à nos intentions d'inclure des sorties pour les forces d'Al-Andalus et des Royaumes chrétiens du Nord d'Espagne; Une période extrêmement intéressante d'histoire médiévale musulmane et chrétienne.


L'Europe féodale sera également explorée, nous espérons peut-être explorer les factions de l'empire d'Angevin, de la France et du Saint-Empire romain romain, qui étaient dans des États de guerre constante tout au long de cette période.


Nous publierons également une portée byzantine pour cette période, celles-ci peuvent être utilisées contre des factions chrétiennes ou musulmanes telles que leurs ennemis italiens qui ont limogé la ville de Constantinople pendant la quatrième croisade, établissant l'Empire latin.


C'est une période vraiment excitante pour Victrix et nos clients, bien que ce soit tôt le développement, nous avons hâte de voir ce qui en vient et espérons que vous vous joignez à nous pour la balade, gardez les yeux ouverts pour les mises à jour à l'avenir!

Sculpting, proportioning and posing of the figures is outstanding. However, your medieval range will suffer greatly if you don’t get the mail armour right. Your figures seem to be covered in 40mm disc armour, whereas true mail is very fine. I’ve seen digital resin figures from other manufacturers that have made exactly the same error. Beautiful, realistic mail, but much too big. Scan the real thing, optimise it for 28mm and add it as a surface.

If I may, I agree with a number of points raised about the mail.

My first point. In this period the mail extended into mittens, not separate as you have modeled.

The sword hilt and pommel have been pointed out already as has the height of the pommel and cantle of the saddle, the other point are the stirrups and leathers. The leathers need to ride further up the leg the strips are more pointed at the top also.

The Quillon dagger is over decorated in my opinion.

All the best and it need images or references please let me know.

Exciting news and a great project, as always.
I only suggest to pay more attention to the swords.
In the pictures of the mounted knight the sword seems to be a little bit shorter.
The pommel is too small compared to the rider’s hand and in any case its shape is too late for the period you are considering. It would be better to use disc and brazil nut-shaped pommels.
I cannot understand what the small circle on the hilt represents: from what source did you get your inspiration?
The double fuller is very rare…why did you choose this shape for the first prototype? :D
But these are subtleties.
I also agree with Rob Hutton: loads of head options will be needed to represent specific periods.
I look forward to seeing the next previews.

I highly recommends you, regarding to the Christian Medieval infantry, to design miniatures based on the Almughavars. This type of soldiers starred lots of the most epic battles against Muslim armies.

Great to see you moving into this era. A few suggestions, if I may, as I specialise in this period.

Mail mittens (mufflers) should ideally be integrated into the hauberk with a wrist strap akin the one one beneath the knee (nice touch).

The mail is a little “industrial” – are you able to reduce the size of the rings and, perhaps, remove the leather edging from the skirts?

The extension of the horse’s heads suggests that they are in considerable distress and, if possible, could be with a little adjustment.

The caparisons look great, especially with the tails underneath, and weapon size is realistic.

Feel free to drop me a line.

Very cool to see! The Middle Ages have been one of great interest to me with regards to miniatures but one that I have yet to buy into en masse, I think in part due to my disinterest in most of what’s available in the plastic market (the Perrys make some fine ones, of course, which I do own). I’m now happy to have waited. I have some of your Normans that I plan on turning into a small army and I was very pleased with the sculpts, so Medieval period models from you guys? Sign me up! Definitely looking forward to it.

Well talk about timing, I have been searching around for figures for this period. The only thing I would say is please please please make sure there are loads of head options because helmet styles changed considerably over this period for example barrel and sugarloaf helms whilst they look cool were very much towards the end of the period and so if depicting early part you don’t want to be using these. And likewise later you want more of these. Also Spanish and Portuguese had a few distinctive helmet styles so enough of these to do reconquista period would be awesome.

Will there be dismounted figures for the crusaders and Europeans? And mounted islamic forces in time?

I hate to say it but I’m not terribly impressed with these. Various Victrix lines are pretty good (and I have many). As far medieval minis go, although belonging to a later period, Perry is #1. Even they aren’t perfect, but are the most realistic in pose and form. These look goinky. The 54mm knights coming from Russia and Ukraine are very realistic, but they are just depictions of knights posing with their weapons rather then swinging their sword/mace/axe.

These look great and are welcome addition to an Era that is I’ll served. There simply is not much out there other than 3D Prunted, which have wonderful detail, but the price per figure for Crusades has doubled over the last six months.
Like everyone else, I want to know when they’ll be available.
But more importantly for me…will they be available in 54mm scale (1/32) as well as 28mm?
This Era in 1/32 scale is really undeserved!
Great news!
Waiting with trepidation.

I just painted two medieval European armies 1190-1310 this winter 200+knights on horseback and 400+ infantry, some resin, metal and plastic. I’m always looking for new figures, poses for the Third Crusade period. These figures are a dream come true! How long before I can get my hands on these beauties?

Thank you for this project, especially the head variants that allows you to create figures for the 1173 Great revolt against Henry II. A project that has been on my to do list for a couple of years. Will it be possible to mix the miniatures with the Norman range, to create the armies of the Anarchy?
Twelfth century Byzantines and hopefully Armenians would be a great addition. Also any chance of some Flemish mercenaries?
Overall the twelfth century is badly served in my opinion. Most miniatures either feature the classic Norman helmet and then jump to the great helm.
I want go into with mailed mits or not.

That is good news. Other plastic companies have made 12-13th c. figures, but your new ranges look energetic without being too flamboyant or cartoonic in pose. The lance carried by knights was not as long as in later periods, so in the images the lances are just right. As long as you do not add small items of plate armour, particularly to knees, these feudal cavalry are just right for Second Crusade onwards, sack of Constantinople and the successor Frankish states of Greece and the Latin Empire, Albigensian crusades, wars of Barbarossa in Italy, Angevin wars of Henry II and sons, French invasion of England 1215-17 etc. REALLY versatile! A set of contemporary western civilians for camps, marches, sieges, dioramas would also be very handy, as would petriers and crews.

A fascinating period of English history. Very much
interested in the Anarchy and the Barons wars. Not the slightest bit interested in the crusades.
But the rise of the Plantagenets and all of the intrigue that entailed in England, and what was to become France fascinates me.
Perhaps at some stage a foray into the Scottish and Welsh wars. Another forgotten period by the manufacturer is the 1300’s with the battles of Crecy and Poitiers.
The pictures are stunning, and will definitely be on by buy list.
By the way thanks for the Pak40 and Lloyd carriers which arrived today Superb, as usual.
As a former figure manufacturer I think I can safely day that Victrix are THE BEST on the market.
