This is my first ever attempt at painting up any Bretonnians and I am quite pleased with the outcome. I went with the peasant look and lots of brown leather instead of the chequered two tone colour scheme which is very popular. I must admit they were more detailed models than I first realised, especially as I included the stakes and movement trays to go with them. I think I will paint up another group of archers including a banner holder and musician(command looking group) next.
I also need to come up with dedicated symbol for the banners and a bit of background history to my Brettonian force as it grows.
My first knight on horseback finished and a complete learning curve, especially the horse painting. The colour scheme is blatantly borrowed from many others before me but was very helpful as a painting guide for a beginner .
I must admit the strange bits connected to the horses feet threw me at first but realisation eventually dawned they were GWs attempt to connect the horse hooves to the base in a flowing style. I nearly cut them off.






These are all very nice indeed and the knight is quite impressive! π
Thanks John. I found the knight quite hard to do,especially the white colouring. I hope its a good starting point and I can improve as I go on.
Brilliant work mate πwhat scale are these fine fellows.
They are 28mm,standard Warhammer size. I think the new models that recently came out are nearer 32 mm ?

Nice work!
The knight looks brilliant.
And the archers defenses are a nice touch.
