Abu's Baron's War (Progress update 10 June)
« on: April 02, 2021, 03:30:21 PM »
I've begun this project with foot knight codes released in the initial KS(s), sans 1 (one) whom I intend to style after Reginald Croc. Information on his heraldry is elusive, to say the least. I'd be appreciative of any useful information if anyone may happen to know more about the man credited with killing the Comte du Perche at Lincoln Castle. Otherwise I'll be using the logo from the Phallological Museum in Reykjavik... Now, time to put brush to metal on some troops of lesser social standing.

Lovely Heraldry - just the right amount of dirt too.

Wow! Those look really good indeed! I wish mine were even close to such a level of painting. I also love how the heraldry is incorporated in their clothes as well as on their shields.

Has to be something something something rampant rubrum...
