Miniart 1/16 English Knight FINISHED!!!
Posted by TacoBuff on Sunday, February 22, 2009 5:06 PM

Hello all.  Like the title says, miniarts English knight, and Warhammer's Bretonnian (sp?) knight.  I got the miniart kit on sale from Dragon's online store, and a friend asked me to paint one of his warhammer guys.  Both painted with Tamiya acrylics, and light oil washes (the miniart knight got several layers of black oil wash to dirty up the armor in a semi-realistic manner).

By the way, I scratch built the english knight's shield, as I felt the kit provided one was too small, and not very knightly.  I found several images of Kite shields, and made one from stock styrene sheet.  The warhammer knight is done up to look like a crusader.

Comments and constructive criticism welcome!

Thanks sterno! I wish I could say I painted the symbols, but they are indeed decals. Actually, these are the nicest looking decals I've worked with. Usually my decals silver, but these went on without a hitch.
