Bretonnian Knight

On popular demand a better picture of my bretonnian questing knight:

And a picture of my witchhunter captain:

Wow, they are really good! Have try to figure out where the questingknight's body is from, is it a men-at-arm body?

also, where did the little barrel, next to the chest come from?

Of the Bretonian minis, ALL the paraphenalia they haul about makes the Questing Knights my personal favorites. This one is a fine eample of both the genre & your skill with the brush.
I REALLY like the Witch Hunter's flaming pistol; i.e., it has a certain appealing steam punkiness to it; an excellent transition from 40K to Fantasy.
Both ARE fine looking minis. WELL DONE!

Ha! that Questing knight is absolutely brilliant Magnoliafan!

My guess is you used the torso of a questing knight and grafted the legs of a bret man-at-arm onto that.

Very cool!
(Did I mention that I love bretonnians?)

Job well done. Superbly converted and painted.

It's either Bretonnian or Dwarf - I think I had one somewhere. I've used it on a ruin I think....

Doesnt that lil keg come on the spru with the random Mordheim stuff, with the rope, lantern and other bits??

I could be wrong but it think i remember seeing it on there...

Haha, the first thing that popped into mind when I saw these pics of the knight was a hilarious mental image of him trying to climb that rope while wearing all that armor

Anyways, both models are quite stunning. I must admit that I now want a knight similar to that one. As the others have said, you have an uncanny ability to "gear up" your minis while still allowing them to look natural.

Thanks everyone!
The knight is made from a mounted questingknight with his legs cut off and clued on the legs from the man at arms command sprue (Anast and Tom can continue for the dish washer ). The back pack is from the dwarven adventurers (so is the one from the witchhunter) and the little barrel is from the old dwarven plastics! The rest of the bits are all from the bretonnian men-at-arms sprue.

@ Identity: mabey he has a rope so his squires can PULL him up the wall...

LOL

The Questing Knight is a beast, a careful selection of bits and some bold modeling and you've got yourself a knight worn and dark enough to fit the surroundings of Mordheim. The battered pilgrim shield and the shamble of goods slung over his back make him fit in perfectly. A top notch conversion.

The converted Inquisitor is a classic. That model was always just aching to be converted into a witch hunter, personally I would have popped off the flame and the fuel canister, it would make the pistol look less bulky. Apart from that it's a very well executed model. Bravo!

Hoot! Hoot! Like Tom I love Bertonnia But!! a Questing Knight need a warhorse Horse! Horse! Horse! GIVE HIM A HORSE DAMN IT!!!!!!!

(Oh P.S why did you leve the flam and canaster on the pistol planing on useing for 40k too? )

I love these 2 minis, hope my questing knight will be as great as yours !

@Jaquemart (and dwi): I left the flames on it because it think just looks soooo cool! I know its a little bit to 40K'ish, but its just too cool
@dwi: I'm afraid i dont gonna give him a horse (sorry) because I originaly build him for warhammer quest and right now im not really working on a bretonnian warband (mabey later...)
@Lanyssa Ryssyll: Thanks, I hope to see your knight someday around here somewere

Ah-ha! Found it: It wasn't a ruin I used it on at all. It was Adm'rul Kurgan himself!
(Edit: And it is Bretonnian)

Btw mate, what arm did you use for the sword? and wheres the cool shield from exelent model!

The arm is part of the Questing Knight model used for the upper part of the body and the shield is from the Grail Pilgrims.

That questing knight looks amazing, really nice work. I'm also really impressed with the witch hunter captain, he fits perfectly into a Fantasy setting. Excellent conversions!

Did you have to buy the knights toghethor or did you get that one seperate? but very nive convertion all the same. + is the flame gun thing from 40k?

Once upon a time, you could buy seperate Questing Knights. I am not so sure how they handle it nowadays, though. And yes, the Witch Hunter is 40K.

Naw they dont im afraid.
