Onward Christian Soldiers-Teutonic Knights.

Ordered on Thursday,delivered on Monday,and first unit finished on Wednesday!!

The first unit of 8 figures is well under way in this shot-with only three main colours,they are going to take me no time at all!!(black,white and gunmetal)
Each unit will have two flags-I made this one up,but looks okay.
All finished,just need basing and flocking...........................

Two "in situ" shots-it had to be in front of that castle!!!!
I could quite easily get sick of painting black crosses-we'll see!!
Roll on Sunday,we will be re-fighting the second battle of "El Teb", 1884, in the Sudan.

    John,
    Great knights, shame about the colour, how about some Knights of Saint John. Red and white.

      Hi Mike(springinsfeld)-I've gone off Irregular for the moment-too much flash on the figures,and easily bent!!
      Thanks for your kind comment,there will be 6 units of them in total,plus another 6-12 units of Russians and Poles!!
