Pair of Bohemian Knights, Early 15th century

[Cyrill I.]

I'm currently practising heraldry and shield weatherings. The knights are 75mm metal and resin from Alexandros and Mercury Models. The second one I actually did last year and just touched up some things, went to town on his shield and added the more recent Ronov family shield to the base. Shield fit looks a bit wonky because it's there with poster tack and will be done with a more complex design soon, it's my practice shield at the moment.

Happy weekend everyone

Very fine drawing and geometrical designs, the weathering is very real in my opinion.

I agree with Edorta, good work, the armour looks very effective.

Thanks Eduardo, but it's still a bit crude. I was trying to do it like BlindPew did it on his gladiator, doing a pencil outline, however my Vallejo primer started to peel when I tried to do that. Guess I really need to look into stronger primers for future projects - one that I can also sand, and leave the Vallejo for the 28mm stuff.

I don´t know if this is useful for you, but I use Hunbrol enamel matt for primer, very diluted with thinner, you get a very thin flat layer, but resistant.
