CCCVIII - Teutonic Knight

Post by thrash »

Here is my entry for the CCCVIII Realistic Castle Figure category: a Teutonic Knight!

The decal and cape were designed and printed by me.

The helmet, sword, and dagger were designed in CAD and painted by me.

The vambraces are from Brickforge.

Enjoy!

Wow, this is top notch! I love the hand-and-a-half sword (epee batarde) and dagger. The helmet looks great. The matching front torso and cape make me envious.

My only concern is that the paint you used on the sword and helmet gives those items a "spongy" or nerf-like finish, like a twinky. How did you manufacture these?

Good luck in the contest, this figure will give the others a run for their money.

These pieces really are of exceptional quality. I also would be interested in hearing some more about the techniques you used for fabricating them.
