- Keeping it nice and simple today!
Apologies for having forgotten the size comparison a few folks asked for. I'll grab some photos later, but for now it's worth knowing they're 'true' 28mm miniatures, so to put it bluntly they don't really scale in as replacements for Bretonnians if that's what you're thinking... or you could play another game with them? 😅

Excellent video as always. And you said something in passing that was an “OMG” moment for me: “don’t move around wet paint as it will create texture!” That was pure gold! THANK YOU! 🙏 I have been doing that for years and thought I hadn’t thinned my paints enough. It’s been driving me crazy. Thank you. Just another reason to watch and support your videos! Thank you, Sir! Cheers 🍻
Would love these as a kit bash for Trench Cursade. Thanks for sharing.
I'm not hugely into the Trench Crusade look, I'm afraid. Not likely I'm going to do anything for that any time soon.
You read my freaking mind. Thinking about this kit along with their French WW1 infantry for my New Antioch force
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio- wasn’t requesting- just me thinking out loud as it was.
@@connormorgan6137- yes picked up the WW1 French box on my travels this week.
The cloth covering worn over armour are called the fflippety-fflap-fflaps. It is Old French.
I knew someone would know! 😜
I am really excited to get mine and I hope Wargames Atlantic does more knights
There's a whoooole range of knights, sergeants, and levies coming down the line! :D
These are great. And you are a treasure for the community. Thanks for this!
Im calling this episode "Sonic Sledgehammer Foes Hollywood!"
Ironic that you did this, and I am waiting for my first group of Wars of the Roses Infantry to arrive. Great job!
Great video! I would love to see you do more Wargames Atlantic stuff like this.
Another group of minis that looks fun to paint. And it appears your wrist is back in "fighting shape"!
They look great! More medieval/dark ages, please!
Another great vid to save to my "miniature painting" playlist for review and guidance!
that is awesome, could you do one based on the Classic Lego knights of the Bull? I loved the games they appeared in as a kid
The figures look great and they would look good in a diorama as well as stand alone miniatures. Thanks for sharing this tutorial.
Awesome.. I have a pile of Uruk Hai from childhood I need to paint and I think this would be the best way to do it!
Footsore Miniatures has transfers for the Barons War Metal range so they could work for the plastic minis as well
Also worth having a look at the mighty brush they do a wonderful range of transfers, lots of heraldic images to choose from
Superb knights, wonderful chain mails and colors/heraldy!👍👍
Still can’t believe how easy you make it look figures are great thank you, so glad you do these vids thank you 🙏
Very cool looking figures great to see another ma manufacture bring them out gives a great variety to an arm excellent painting tutorial
I think the coat bit you were asking about is literally just called a surcoat, like the two thin voats mascot. Also, i see a Dark Angel, howling gryphon and Novamarine, excellent choices :)
Huzzar! Sonic hath returned. Glad to see you painting again chap.
Definitely going to try this when I start my Bretonians
Great video! Goldberg and friends go on a merry quest.
Try out some Victrix minis mate. A real treat. Maybe their Norman Cavalry or Saxon infantry.
This has come at a perfect time!
Working on the same kit,I've picked up some great tips,thank you
finaly a medieval paintjob!!!! awesome as always
Perfect for mordheim
Working on some isenkern stormtroopers from war games Atlantic struggling a bit instructions would have been helpful but they are cool.
Surcoat is the word you're looking for.
See, I *thought* surcoat and then figured, "Nah, I wouldn't have that right first time, it must be something else" and threw it out. Gotta trust myself! 😂
the figures are very nice, but it's "small" 28mm. historically it is very very vague in terms of the period in view of the equipment of the models. superb painting as usual, always a pleasure to watch you paint.
5:00
"Go on Bors, chop it's head off"
"Right, one rabbit stew comin right up!"
Seeing him like that decided it for me. If I ever get my hands on a box of these I'll probably have to paint them up like Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Unfortunately none of them look cowardly enough for sir Robin.
Great job mate 👍
How might you paint up Sir Not Appearing in This Film?
@@guilmon182
It'll be difficult for sure. Owing to the unfortunate dearth of source material.
I did hear a rumour once that it was a mere babe in chainmail, but surely that's just a tall tale.
It’s good, to be at home.❤
i use your marine jiuce, its good stuff
Great video! Still amazed by the power of marine juice! However, I prefer Army Painter as a company, so i keep to their products, which makes finding a replacement recipe tricky. I have considered the dark skin tone wash thinned with speedpaint medium, as it is sark but still has some red/purple tones.
Have you found a useful alternative with the new AP fanstic line?
How did you paint the boar head good sir, just free hand?
It's a transfer from the Cities of Sigmar infantry sheet.
Ate those bases 25mm or 30mm diameter? Thanks
25mm.
Would you recommend these to act as foot knights for Old World? How well do they scale against the classic Bretonian Knights of the Realm?
Think he’s got this covered in the description box:
“Apologies for having forgotten the size comparison a few folks asked for. I'll grab some photos later, but for now it's worth knowing they're 'true' 28mm miniatures, so to put it bluntly they don't really scale in as replacements for Bretonnians if that's what you're thinking... or you could play another game with them?”
@@kendo5862 Thanks!
Yup! Beat me to it. In short, no, they're not going to be a replacement for Bretonnian knights unless you're planning to use others from the range as it releases.
@@kendo5862unless you don't mind the size differences that is.
Question, I've been mixing marine juice for a while now following your recepie, and I keep running into a problem where the mixture pools weirdly in some areas, almost like it's gone hydrophobic. Do you think there's something I'm doing wrong with the mix, or could it be the paints I apply it over, I've tried it over both acrylics and contrast paints, and I'm getting a lil worried I might be ruining my paint works.
What brush are using for the base layering stage there?
What's your thoughts on using a texture palette instead of a paper towel for dry brushing? Have you tried it?
That's is nothing more than an internet fad. One person mentions it in their video once and then the gullible masses parrot it continuously.
Never seen the point of them. With a bit of practice you can drybrush without leaving chalky residue anyway, and between a wash and a varnish you'll almost never see what the texture palette is supposed to solve. It seems like someone started selling them and suddenly they were *everywhere* as the must-have, but... eh? Paper towel still works.
