Following on from my first “Barons War” post last week I have now completed a further four Footsore Miniatures. Nothing much to say on these that wasn’t covered in the previous post. I kept the idea of two colour tunics and quadrants along with freehand shield designs.
I still have a few other figures to do and have placed an order for some more with the aim of hopefully doing a couple of mini dioramas.
Images and a couple of group shots, icluding one of all nine figures, below.

Very nice! 🙂 A colourful collection – I’d have struggled to get that much variation, but they all go together well!

Thanks John. I must admit I have enjoyed doing some nice colourfull pieces and this is a genre I will be returning to I think.

Haha, you’re not wrong Pat. Have had plenty of time to practice of late and the absence of beer has made for a steadier hand! 😊

Very taken with those – they look great. Paint a couple more and you’ll be able to have a skirmish game with them….
Cheers,

Great work. I love the first one the most with the purple and white stripes. Do you use tape to keep the stripes straight or are you just that good with freehand?

Thank you. I did try tape once but ended up getting in a right mess so these days it is all freehand with touching up here ans there. It is getting better with practice that’s for sure.

Really awesome work on these knights. They remind me of Bretonnians from Warhammer Fantasy which fills me with nostalgia since that army/faction is no longer made. I’ve been craving a project where I can practice my freehand skills and painting up some of these guys could be a good solution. Thank you for the inspiration as always! 🙂

Flattered that you are inspired. Knights do provide one of the best opportunities for practicing freehand that’s for sure.
