Another pair of foot knights, including the death cryer.
I think I'm going to take a break before painting new Reiksguard models. However, I have found in my boxes two 80's references from the Citadel Knights of the Empire range that could join the regiment to reach my objective of 12 guards.
In the meantime, 10 elite fighters protecting the White Lady.
Let's go back to the full-plate guys.
I probably need to deepen the shadows on the two-handed sword. And of course paint the bases...
Still 3 guards to paint to complete the regiment!
Finally done. I still have a few ideas, but I need more time (and miniatures).
Back to the foot knights!
Another acolyte of the cult of the Mourners: the gravedigger. A classic Mordheim miniature, and a welcome change in the Warhammer Empire range.
Another fanatic meant to reinforce my regiment of mourners. Neither shovel nor pickaxe here, but a candlestick.
The original miniature is an old Citadel fighter holding a stick. I have simply replaced the hands holding a pole to support the chandelier of the AOS Scriptor Mortis model.
See you soon with a gravedigger 💀
Second batch of Reiksguard foot knights, including the standard bearer, a very basic conversion where the original pole was replaced by a plastic bit.
The banner is an adaptation of the motifs painted on the ceiling of Louise de Lorraine's bedroom at the Château de Chenonceau: feathers, thorns, and the crowned and intertwined initials of the tragic spouses.
