This is insane! You are one of the best miniature painters on youtube

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

You're too much - I cant lay claim to that title , haha. Thank you though, glad you like it!

[@r1ck5m1th]

These look fantastic! Freehand is insane 😳 I still need to build my foot knights from the perry's English agencourt box

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

Thank you. I’ve thought about getting English but I’ve got so many other projects I wanna do. Enjoy yours! :)

[@JohnMiller-yh2lj]

They look awesome, really good to see you go above the basics like most people.

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

Thanks John! Had a lot of fun with them.

With the second guy, I think the reason why his coat of arm has a cross through his coat of arms is to make it look different. The way coats of arms worked back in the day (and how it still works) is you had to make a chance to make the coat of arms your own. This change could be a massive one or it could be as simple as putting a cross through one quarter.

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

It could be. I think some of them also adopted more , especially the Scottish, as they became allies with the French. Adding Fleur-de-lys as they gained lordship over French fiefs. In the case of Stewarts, there was two of them in France with very similar coats of arms... I often confuse the two ;)

Really digging the heraldry on these foot knights.

Would love to see dice with a white background and gold center. Very “French” lol

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

For now I think I'll hold off on dice. But you never know!

[@THE_MR_MAN]

love it hopefully ill do good on mine thanks for the inspiration

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

Have fun!! Thanks for checking it out

[@markussharaput9611]

Really nice work on the heraldry here. Do you paint the body, and then attach the arms, or full assembly, and then an agile brush? Do please keep up on this project, it's been a good one to follow.

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

Thank you! I build everything first. Usually I paint shields separate unless they’re bucklers. So the heraldry is done when the minis are fully assembled and I have to work around arms and the like. I just find it better this way so I don’t screw up with glue and I can also use green stuff to patch up arms and weapons etc before I prime it all. I’ll keep updating it! I’m doing more cavalry next. ;) thanks for watching

[@tatefranklin4761]

That's some crazy levels of freehand. Do you use micron pens or are you just insanely steady handed.

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

I didn’t use micro pens for these ones. I used a size 0000 brush lol. Very very small.

[@alius117]

Tutorial when?

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

Not sure I'll do one - there is much work to do but maybe one day in the future.

[@dubyprimesean7405]

Wow really nice paint job on those foot knights. what paints do you use? and how do you get that look on the armor?

[@carthagemustbedestroyed]

I used vallejo and citadel paints. The base coat is vallejo oily steel washed with citadel nuln oil then layered with gw iron breaker and edged with runefang steel

[@rccmavis]

how do you do your metals that shine is insane

[@aaronadams1745]
