PanzerKaput Goes To Barons' War
Sir William Rimet and Sir Gilles Dubois
Sir William Rimet and Sir Gilles Dubois May I introduce two more mounted Lords , Sir William Rimet and Sir Gilles Dubois. These are the commanders of the next two 500 point forces I am building and also can be used as simple normal knights too. The actually miniatures are characters from Footsores Barons’ War range, them being the evil King John and Falkes de Breaute.
Sir William Rimet (King John) is painting using the England football team badge for the heraldry and team colours for the tunic and team. I have hand painted the shield and the horse curtains and I think the over look is right. Interest fact is about the England team badge is that it was actually based on the Plantagenet shield, so this is fitting.
Sir Gilles Dubois (Falkes de Breaute) is not based off any thing other than I like the colours and any resemblance to a East Anglian football team is accidental, them being Norwich City. I wanted a Dragon or Drake rampant on the shield and though I am not to sure if historically they had dragons on the shield, it looks cool and again this is hand painted on there.
