First of all, really awesome miniatures!

Then a question. What size are those cavalry bases you used for your knights? I still cannot choose between round bases and the shape of yours. I guess it must depend a bit on the size of the horse as well, as LOTR stuff fits quite nicely on round bases, while other bigger 30mm horses do not, unless one prefers to have them quite distant one from the other when massed together.

Beautiful miniatures. Though I have a set of plastic knights lying about, you have made the metal Perry miniatures look sublime! Would you recommend them?

Thank you guys! :)

The calvary bases are made by war-bases.co.uk. Just look for "oval or pill" bases. They fit very well on the Perry hoses, so i guess LOTR horses would work aswell.


I managed to get more miniatures done and took some photographs :)

Hope you like them!
Cheers,
Daniel
