I like them all a lot, but I think the archer would look better with a helmet. But that's just me.

I like the archer the best. The armour is really articulate and cool. It would be even better painted, but still, a good set of custom figs.
Yay, that makes 100 posts!

I also like the archer the best, but the royal guard comes in a close second. I like the use of the Luke head in the archer.
I also like the torso on the archer. Did you draw that? It looks really good.

Very nice! I like them.

But how about some arrows on the archers back.

And a shield for the spearmen.

Nice figs. I like the archer best, on account of his decal. You might give him a quiver, though.

Yes, I need to crack down on this stuff. I've never gotten or bought a castle set in my life, so I have to work with what I have.

Thanks for the comments.

I actually like the archer without a helmet. It is nice to see non-military castle figs. But that is my opinion.

I believe that's a Redbean design.

The torso on the Knight is a TTK design.

Gotta remember to give proper credit, Socrates.

I like these a lot. Are they supposed to be from Greek influence, or are they just Greek Soldiers?

Very nice. Some things you might wanna consider giving a try:

For the archer, use some thread to create a bowstring for the bow - the Red Bean bow was created with that in mind, and it really makes it look nice.

Recolor the chainmail from grayscale to a yellow ochre (muted yellow) so it meshes better with the bronze color of the armor.

Oh, and my cat's name is Socrates....
