These look absolutely tremendous. Some of the best 28mm figures I've seen.

I love the knights! What is the best way to paint blackened armour? Just a black wash over steel? Or is it actually black?

Those are just beautiful.  They're the best figures of their type ever.  Do I need another period though  ???  Of course I do......

All limitations are self imposed.  Work hard and dream big.

I know these are expensive but Simon has reduced them so that the cavalry are £6.00 each if bought in pairs or £5.00 each if you buy six.
Infantry are £7.50 for four which is fairly normal for good metal figures.

They look awesome. They are definitely on the need list.

I paint it in black; then I make some highlights using a graphite pencil (hard better than soft). I finish with a layer of clear varnish. The results are pleasant. You must be careful if you have other parts already painted, as the dust from the graphite can make them dirty.

Hi
I've held off updating this post until I have restocked (which I have today) - so we now have 7 Landsknecht packs to offer, sculpted by Oliver.
All the codes have 4 different poses and 4 different separate heads, to maximise build options.
We also have some weapons, heads pack and flags.

They can be obtained via the website: https://www.steelfistminiatures.com 

Here are a few pics to hopefully wet the appetite.








This is first release and we'll be adding to both the Italian Wars range and more Landsknechts this year.

Many thanks
Simon
