Again some nice painted knights! :thumbup:

I have never seen knights from that Emhar set painted before I think! Looks like a nice set. :thumbup:

Many thanks! :-D

But I didn't really like this set: the casting is not of the best quality and it is very inconvenient to paint them when the figures have long spears and shields glued on.

The figures are strange, the horses are strange, the painting is fantastic! Go on!

Always impressive to see what is possible with the right paintjob...

I agree completely with Susofrick and Ben90. Your paintjob has elevated those poor figures to a masterpiece level, Leonid. Very well done. :drool:

Congratulations. :thumbup:

Beautifully painted figures ... I really like your style of painting.

Hello everybody!

Thank you very much!

Thank you! But I wouldn’t say that these figures are so bad. Mars has really good figures, and these are, say, of average quality. Horses are the "weakest" thing in Mars. I just like the poses: they are very dynamic, they depict close and hand-to-hand combat, and there are almost no other manufacturers of such poses. There simply figures are riding on horseback with weapons ready. And the worst set of Mars is the mounted sergeants!

I already spoke about this once)

Oh thank you! Another diorama will be ready soon, there are 4 figures left to paint and they are already in the process. :-)

Thank you very much for such a flattering assessment!! :thumbup:

We must say hello to Mars! He was here once)) :xd:

Polish-Lithuanian army.
Polish knights.
Figures mix from Zvezda, Italeri, Miniart, Mars... I will not add a description of what sets they are from, you already know that. ;-)

All these figures are one of my first ones and they are repainted. The last photo of each of the figures is what they were before the rework. :-D

Continuation of the previous post ...

There are 4 more figures left for the diorama. They are in the process ...

Posted by **Ben90** on 26 Dec 2020, 23:09

While your previous work was certainly nice, I really like what the repaint added to it. The coats of arms are much more noticable, and the highlighting looks far better. Once again: Great (re)work!

Posted by **MABO** on 28 Dec 2020, 09:21

I am looking forward to see the complete army!

Thank you Ben! Some of them did not need to be repainted at all, but we must adhere to one style)) they will be mixed with other figures on the diorama.

Yes, I think it will be cooler than the previous diorama)
