I just wanted to post a couple of WIP pictures of the unit of Brettonian knights that I've had sitting on my desk for many weeks. I've been having trouble deciding what colors I should use on them and how involved I wanted the heraldry to be. In the end I opted to go for fairly basic designs using all the colors that were employed in my other units. This will give the whole force a bit of coherency but still allow the knights to stand out a bit from the peasant rabble.
As you will recall with the other units of this army I used a Dark Green and a Dark Blue as the unifying colors...and then each unit had a tertiary color to make them unique. So added to the blue and the green are: gray, salmon orange, brick red, golden yellow and to brighten things up I will also employ some white.
So this weekend I managed to get the base colors on all the knights (except the general)...just breaking the inertia and getting moving on these feels really good and I think they will look very nice in a big unit.
Here is where I am at this point
Cheers,
Blue
Looking good Blue, I really like the way you Knights ride sticks.. not like those commoners whih ride horses! Oh no!
ReplyDeleteNice colour choices Blue - should both fit in and stand out from the rabble very nicely!
