The attempt at some kit bashed bidets for the English Retinue worked out quite well this morning, using Perry Miniatures heads and bodies from the Agincourt English and French infantry sets, with arms from the War of the Roses infantry set. The long bows on the War of the Roses arms are shorter than the ones on the Agincourt figures, but that is actually a good thing, as they represent hunting bows rather than war bows, so perfectly useable for a self-contained skirmishing unit. I used the heads without helmets apart from the scale caps on a couple of the figures which I didn't use for the longbow archers. I also used some of the running bodies from the French infantry set to add a bit of dynamism to the poses, perfect for flighty skirmishers nipping out of the bushes for a pot shot at the enemy!
