Hi, could you please give me a quick review of this kit ? I was very tempted to get one or all of these knights, how is the detail/fit/anatomy etc… ?
Finding any info on them online has been fruitless
Cheers
Sorry I have been late in responding. Thanks for the comments guys. Right now some of the colors are on and it is going well. I’ve painted by the “stop sign rule” as outlined in Sheperd Paine’s book “Building and Painting Scale Figures”.
Ukali74, I did a resin kit of a Celt a long time ago and it was much superior to this Knight. The pros of this kit are the face and the belt/sword harness seems to be fairly well done. Also, the ring mail is well rendered. I’d rather do a resin kit but for someone like me who is relatively new to figures, it was a good buy. The cons are that the rear parts of the gauntlets don’t fit at all, and the surcoat doesn’t have many folds. If I painted the surcoat metallic it would almost look like the cuirass.
For someone who is still learning the ropes of figure painting like me, it was a good buy. But if you are experienced I’d stick with better quality kits.
Cheers,
Dave
Many thanks for taking the time to help me out there, I just won one on ebay !
