The figures I bought from Irregular Miniatures are also shown,but it must be pointed out that I only painted 8 of the 16,having "dumped" the "wounded" figures!!

Cross-Eyed! Painting update.
I have eventually finished all of the Warrior Miniature Teutonic Knights-the last two units I have painted as Hospitallars(black with white crosses) known as the order of St John,and a red with white crosses unit, now known as the Grand Order of St Robbie!!-I will not be painting any more figures with crosses on them for a long,long time!!

I must admit to being quite pleased with these two units-employing the "three foot rule" they look good,but don't bear close inspection,and look,they have been photographed beside that castle!!
Detail of the Knights of St John-home made banners(wine foil!)
Detail of the Knights of St Robbie(Robbie Roddis suggested I painted some red and white ones!) again the banners are home made from wine bottle foil(hic!)
Very nice figures,good pose and easy to paint!

If I were to do any more Crusading order crosses, I would get transfers!

Excellent work.... the guys in black are my favourite.
ReplyDeleteHi Springinsfeld,I must admit that the red and black does look pretty good-but will they perform well against the Mongols????
