Grenadier foot knights

 Given my lack of updates here I thought I'd take a look back at a few things I should have perhaps posted here but didn't. A few posts back I showed three old Grenadier foot knights I'd painted, two from the time and one from a year or two earlier. Well I had two additional knights prepared, all base coated and ready to start but they ended up just gathering dust. I eventually got around to doing them the other year so here they are.




Fantastic sculpts and a joy to paint. I also had another knight that I'd painted back around 2003 for an article in the long dead Harbinger magazine. Whilst I'd been selling off some of my old random painted figures I couldn't part with that model so decided to give him a retouch and add him back into the collection. He got rebased onto a round slotta as per my current whims and general distaste for square bases and I retouched a few things along with some added highlighting of his armour to fit my current style.



And of course there has to be a group shot of all the knights together. I've got more of these and one day I might get a few additional ones painted up.

Grenadier Foot Knights

A quick post to show a couple of old Grenadier Miniatures foot knights that I recently painted up. The one on the right was painted a while back, possibly over a year ago at this point. I've had four other knights base coated and gathering dust ever since. The other week I decided it was time to change that sorry state of affairs and get another painted. That rapidly turned into me getting two done thanks to these being pretty straight forward models.


I originally bought these back in the early 90's on the strength of a review in Games Master International magazine. They made up a full unit of 15 knights and were a part of my poorly thought out Bretonnian army. It's really nice to see these few given a new lease of life. Two more waiting in the wings but for now I have other things I want to work on.
