All these tournament sets turning up lately inspire me to start with mine. But it will probalby take a couple of years before I have the time to start with it. Must finish some other painting first. Yours looks great!
I think a lady is good suggestion. Or even better he is a horsehandler on a castle or even better yet he is a horseseller on a market. There are so many knights around already, but not many ordinary people.
Maybe the guy with a dog can inspect troops at a castle? Have to agree with Pascal that he maybe don't fit in the pilgrim set (but if it is a wanderer set he can fit pretty well).
Very gruesome, but we would get many dogs that we can use in other scenarios, audience that we also can use in other places. The poor bear? Maybe make him such that he can be used in other scenes.
