WIP: Lorraine Knights #2

I didn't get as much done on the knights this evening as I'd hoped:
base colours for caparisons
armour dry-brushed with Gunmetal Grey
horse base-coats


And once again, I messed up the order I did those steps in! It should have been the reverse of the above.

Note to self: get brain in order before you completely b****r these figures up!

Anyways, here are a couple of pics:



Tomorrow I'll do the shading washes on the horses, tidy up the caparisons, base colours on tunics/tabards and shield faces, any visible flesh, have a nervous breakdown whilst trying to paint fleurs de lys and other designs onto the shields, tabards and caparisons.

  5. @ Fran - they got there quick! Looking forward to seeing them painted up on your blog

    @ Panzerkaput - I'm still nowhere near Ray's speed

    @ Phyllion - yup, more horses. The perils of historical wargaming!

    @ Rodger - at this point it was lucky you couldn't see the close up evidence of dry-brushed metal on the caparisons
