Title: Teutonic Knights
Post by: Ryan on August 17, 2012, 06:30:10 PM: Hi all

I've only just joined the forum, so thought I'd start out with showing some of my Teutonic Knights that I recently finished painting:

Funny about hating white paint; it's not so bad once you get used to it ;)

I have some Knights Templar that I need to paint, but the white / off-white painting is making me nervous. I have seen others here and on TMP and their figures look great. I just don't want to screw mine up, wishing that I hadn't bought them when I really would like to paint them.

Thanks for sharing.

I had originally purchased them to go into a Bretonnian army for 3rd Edition of Warhammer, but plans change! I don't have time for that project (I already have unpainted High Elves and Lizardmen to do!!) so thought I'd have a go at paitning them up as they should be! I do play Warhammer Ancients, but all my gaming for this will be in 1:72 plastics, which is my preferred scale! :D

Yeah, white certainly isn't the easiest. It was also very time consuming, but it's well worth the painful effort! :)

They are great. Dunno why but suddenly all things late medieval are appealing to me. Your work has inspired me to search the leadmountain and produce some knights myself. many thanks for posting and like Oliver Twist

"Please Sir, can I have some more?"

Not really Late Medieval, more circa first quater to last quater of the 13th C.

I must add that the painting is lovely and I look forward to seeing them based up.

No bases on these I'm afraid as I have no plan to use them and will just sell them on as they are, which will give someone the chance to base them how they need them!
