Painting Knights on Foot - Old World or Otherwise! [How I Paint Things]

With pre-orders for The Old World going live tomorrow, I have the strangest feeling there's going to be a lot of people wanting to paint knightly orders, men-at-arms, and other such fantasy warriors of a Gallic nature... Luckily, this is all fairly broad spectrum advice; you could use it to knock out a bunch of Perry Miniatures foot sergeants or similar enough without having to change a thing.
The wonderful Knights of Gallia and other old-school fantasy wargaming miniatures from Highlands Miniatures can be found here: www.myminifactory.com/users/H... If you haven't got your own printer, there's licensed printers on Etsy and similar - try getting in touch with the team directly to see if they have a licensed printer in your area.

Knights are cool, but I'm more interested in the men at arms and peasant militia. There's something about them that screams conversion potential

Its shocking for me after 25+ years playing Bretonnia finding grey priming coat is the going to of the greatest painters. This video and the Duncan Rhodes knight one are going to be my Decalogue for painting my huge old cool Bretonnia collecction.

The Highland mini looks great! I think I prefer it to the new GW Foot Knights, even though the new foot knights are quite beautiful. I prefer the simple big details and heroic weapon scaling of the original release.

Quite impressive mini, I remember painting a LOT of old Citadel's knights, also if ,generally, the shield was always painted apart. A quartered painting scheme would be interesting, and the early Citadel's decals were a (literally!) a life saving thing when painting medieval eraldry.

Always happy to see another video. I feel like your painting, it’s always been good, but wow it’s getting really good lately. Everything looks so neat and sharp and all the colors are so vibrant. Very inspiring work!

@fakestreetspirit Месяц назад

I really love your videos - very calm and clear. This was a super helpful tutorial - for my leather (gloves, pouches, boots, etc.) I like to highlight with Doombull brown. It gives a nice warm contrast to all of the armour.

I love your more grounded version, reminds me of the SFO Foot Knights Errant in Total War II. The Bascinet and the simple but effective lowering of details, GW could learn a thing or two and try and avoid leaning into AOS styling.

I think the thing that I have enjoyed most about watching your painting videos, and I've pretty much watched you from day 1, is seeing your talent and abilities grow over the years. This is meant as a compliment so please take it that way; In my opinion you are right up there with the likes of Sorastro, Ninjon, Miniac, Sam Lenz, just to name a few. It's been an awesome treat watching your climb to that level of miniature painters here on youtube. 🍻 to many more years of "Very special videos". 👍.

@huwtindall7096 5 месяцев назад

Awesome! Tip I picked up with washing when you don't want it that shaded is to simply use your finger to gently wipe off the shade after it's been applied. Given your finger is relatively big compared to to the mini you essentially just take off the shade from the flat and pointy areas leaving it just in the cracks or deeper recesses where you want it. Massive time saver as you dont have to go back over and bring tje colours back up.

I tried painting Ancient gallic shield designs by hand ONCE. After one attempt, I gave up and bought shields and decals 😂😂😂

@h347h 5 месяцев назад

That 3D print looks amazing. Great paint job on it as well! I don't know if I am sold on GWs new army wide black and red scheme because of how good the old heraldry looked but I think it isn't bad by a long shot.

@SonicSledgehammerStudio 5 месяцев назад

Yeah, personally I'd still be doing individuals as much as possible for knights. For the peasants and such a uniform works, but I always loved the visual chaos of a Bretonnian army.

One advantage of painting Old World is probably the separation of shield and torso on the sprues. I’m a big advocate for full assembly painting but, I must admit, I’m kind of a wimp when it comes to shields and do those sub-assembly. Especially since I just got the TK box set…

@UKscalemodeller 5 месяцев назад

Beautiful but doesn't cover the most difficult part.......deciding on the colour scheme to use 😂 My Bolt action Germans are a copy of yours as will be my brettonians. P.S is this the 28 or 32 mm option as I will have to buy them printed (i have no pronter) or if its not too much to ask, what did you resize them to? If I want it to match my GW Brettonians (when they arrive) Cheers

@angrypantz87 5 месяцев назад

Whenever I see the Bretonnians I always want to paint them as Pandion knights.

@SPARTANTROOPER 5 месяцев назад

Always love watching you paint, you just make it look so easy. I still have an absolute nightmare getting the consistency right when thinning paint, it's why I mostly stick with contrast paints.

@guehe99 5 месяцев назад

In this video you have mastery deal with Red, Black and White. For those of us we go to for a nowadays classic Bretonnian army with all colors and of course mixing differents heraldrys in every knight unit what colors do you recommend us for base layer Yellow, Blue, and of course Green? Thanks in advance, for the answer, for your awesome artwork and inspiration, and for your efforts making these videos for us.

@JZStudios2 5 месяцев назад

Wonderful work, and woo Highland Miniatures for the Win! I love their work they do truly make some incredible minis out of everyone that I've seen-and have supported them for years now. One question though as I was reading their recent posts about square bases, if they should go up to 25mm for infantry instead of 20mm. And they very much reassured everyone they would be able to rescale to 28mm without a problem, making me realize I have been printing their stuff at 32mm this whole time. So the question is, do you rescale minis down to 28m or just leave them as they are?

@SonicSledgehammerStudio 5 месяцев назад

According to a post on the Old World Facebook group a little while back, 25mm will be the minimum base size in that system. As for rescaling prints, I very rarely bother; this was printed at the native sculpt size.

@teamkeogh 5 месяцев назад

Hi Troy. Quick question. Do the 3d printed knights of Galia come in sub assembly? I was looking at them last night on myminifactory and thought they would be an amazing project to build. I’ve decaled some great shields already and they’re looking for a home. Also, I’ve pretty much finished my Afrika Korps force that was inspired by your ‘Painting Afrika Korps’ from last year. Thanks as always me 😊

@SonicSledgehammerStudio 5 месяцев назад

They've got separate heads, but there's ten bodies (with a separate command and banner guy), so there's quite a bit of variation in what you can do with them but they aren't multi-part kits, strictly speaking.

@assassinrages2288 5 месяцев назад

Hey love the knight, what size is the model compared to gw models im looking at getting a few and not sure if they will look right with the gw models

They're natively 32mm, but as 3D prints they can easily be resized.

@ohsohologramic 5 месяцев назад

May I ask: Do the highland miniatures come assembled, or are they in a large number of parts?

@ohsohologramic 5 месяцев назад

ALso, do you know if they come supplied with the TOW-size bases? For example, if I buy highlight miniatures goblins, will they come with the original smaller bases, or the appropriate TOW bases?

@SonicSledgehammerStudio 5 месяцев назад

The miniatures come as 2-3 pieces at most, with heads and shields separate. As for the bases, they've been going for much longer than before TOW was even announced, but they're 3D prints so feasibly they're any size. It's probably worth checking out their sites directly.

@callidus11 5 месяцев назад
