I can't remember if I've already shown any of these here but I finished my fifth model recently (blue and white lozenge heraldry) so took a quick group pic of the lot.

I should have more pics of the new model later today which I'll post on my blog: stonecoldlead.blogspot.co.uk

There are more views of the other four models in my gallery on my site too: link

Wow, that's some beautiful painting and basing!

What manufacturer are the figs from? Don't have enough skulls, bits and doodads to be GW ;)

Stone Cold Lead20 Mar 2013 10:32 a.m. PST

LOL… believe it or not they are actually GW! I think it was 90/91 when they were released so they fall inbetween the old 80's Bretonnians that everyone remembers and the mid 90's Bretonnians that everyone remembers. ;) Nice Perry sculpts without all the latter day GW nonsense.

They are nice figures. Beautiful.

New to me, and they look great. Would fit right in with my WoTR foot knights!

Excellent job! The battle damage on the shields is a nice touch.

Thanks for the comments chaps. I've started painting a few retainers to go with these now. I'll be posting WIP pics on my blog as I go. The aim is to have five retainers armed with double handed weapons finished in reasonable time, although I might get as far as three and then want to do something else. You know how it goes. :D

Ok, I should be working but decided to take a quick snap of the retainers I've started.

Everything about this is top-notch. You've got excellent brush control. A pleasure to view your work sir.

I finished off the second axeman and made a start on another model. Hopefully I can keep motivated to do the remaining two models from this 'unit'.

I'm actually after a few more Bretonnians from the end of 3rd edition. Details about my wants are on my blog.

Just a quick photo of the completed swordsman along with the other two retainers. It's always nice to see finished stuff altogether.

I also put together a little tutorial on my basing. It's on my website: link

Really nice work.

AnneOleary08 Apr 2013 4:22 a.m. PST

Thank you so much for putting up the tutorial.

Stone Cold Lead08 Apr 2013 5:06 a.m. PST

No problem Anne ;)

Did you know that Foundry has discontinued the Orc line? You did their Orcling Booze Up, I believe. I had just bought the Orcling Outriders and went back to get the booze up and they're not selling them anymore.

Stone Cold Lead08 Apr 2013 2:36 p.m. PST

I've lost track of the exact models I did for Foundry but I certainly did quite a few way back when. One of their other painters did a very good job of emulating my painting for some of the other orc releases. As for them dropping the line there was something about that in a newsletter recently. Try looking in their Ebay store or perhaps give them a call to see if they can spin you a set specially.

I finally got around to painting up a few more models towards this little project. It's slow going but I'm getting there and I'm still enjoying doing these models.
