Thanks! I was planning to do four, but run out of plaster at three. I will buy more plaster, but just for one base feels a little stupid so maybe totally six bases. Can be more, but I better stop somewhere. :-D

I like to see a project growing, and yours is going the good way Sus :thumbup:

I understand that you do your bases in plaster, and that tells me that you have to handle them very carefully, or you will have damage (this can break don't it?) This is maybe the only minus point in your project.

Thanks! :-D

@Peter. Bad planning from me. Yes it can break. Didn't think this dio would be any good :oops: . Have only broken one base yet and that was when I took it from the mould (it was for a competition). Maybe I'll put it all together in a big dio (on something else than plaster), but for now it works okay. But I fear for the day we have to move (if that happens). :(

Thanks to a lot of people on this forum I painted two knights. More are coming, but these are the first. Couldn't find that many Swedish Medieval family crests so I nicked some modern ones I found on the net. Not very well painted I admit, but there is at least something there.

Very slow progress, but I still plan to be finished sometime near the 700-years anniversary. :-D

Well if you need medieval heraldic, then you can find lots of different here below. Just scroll down to the banners for the Baltic conflict.

Thanks guys, but the only conversion is that I took away the base. One guy is Strelets and the other is Zvezda. Right now I'm painting horses and sometime pretty soon (hopefully this year) I have to make more bases for the rest of the dio. Thanks Valdemar for the link. :thumbup: :thumbup:

But wait! There are two empty horses. I only painted one empty! Ah now I see. Van der Linde has been to the tourist-shop and bought a souvenir.
