These
Art Miniaturen metal Norman Knights were a present from
Wolfgang Meyer, the creator of the Croeburn 1813 dio.
They had no weapons, shields or nags but that wasn´t a problem. The only small problem was getting them to stay put on the horses. I solved it by putting a small blob of clear Silicon onto the saddles. The same to attach the shields.

They fit well with the Strelets and the HaT period knights. I haven´t based them yet as I am considering rebasing the whole Norman army so far for Impetus. |

The sword was sourced from the spares box..it´s plastic but exactly which set it came from..I can´t remember |

My favourite pose....he really looks like he´s going to lance an enemy down. |

ReplyDeleteNo-one expects the spanish inquisition....damm..wrong era :-D
DeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift for you Paul and you've done a bang up job with them. I clicked on the link for the shop and they have some fine pieces. I really like that Punic War Elephant, the Special Edition falcon and those Cro-Magnon were really unique.
ReplyDeleteGood work as always Paul. I've been away from the bench for a while. But it's good to be back. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteA good idea to use the HAT horses, helps safing a lot of money.
