I need some advise and pics
Urufu_Shinjiro:
You may want to clarify if you are looking for an everyday shoot sort of scene or if you want battle gear, because in battle the archers would not be wearing anything like fashion wear but likely quilted gambison and other minimal armor and weapons in addition to their bow.
WillS:
This photo of Nick is what I would consider accurate for slightly earlier than Agincourt (the hose and the sword aren't right up to date with 1415 but you could do a Crecy or Poitiers scene and this would be perfect.

Ruddy Darter:
Here's a archers sallet, and side arms with mallet for hammering in stakes to fortify positions against cavalry, and head bashing, after a swift bash in the face by the buckler shield the bollock dagger was used for slipping up for the gonads or armpit, face or gap in the armour at close quarters.
Ruddy Darter:
Here's a couple of models I found just to show the stakes hammered in, it was a main tactic used and thought it might make a nice addition to your model making. The stakes were possibly a little bigger and taller though (?)
And another pic showing the buckler shield how it was worn.
