One of them, maybe not. But I'm going to have my Champion of course!

So first things first. Panos here's a first draft for your bridgeburners:



Then, inspired by Blader11 member on TJ, great great customiser:

Mongol bowmen (which? cap or bullet-shaped-helmet?)


Chinese guards


My Chinese army is growing bigger


And now some knights

Vevey


Appenzell




Three Blackbirds



Saint Andrew's Lion


Balian of Ibelin


The Nürnberg Guard



Nüremberg Lord


Bayerner Ritter


That's it!

XOXO!

Arnuad I like them all but this last one is awesome!!!
Regarding the Mongols I think the blue cap looks a lot better.
Good job!! :wave:

YES!!!! I Think you have captured the essence of the group Arnaud!!! Bridgeburners: First in, last out!!!

Here is the link to the wikipedia article on the Malazan Empire! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malazan_Empire

If you scroll down you'll find all the details of their history, organisation and people under Military....who knows, maybe you'll be inspired to create the whole unit  ;)!

I think this guy could certainly be Whiskeyjack!!!

As for the rest wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow once again!!!

Your Nurmburg guards are amazing!!! I like the modernisation of teh symbol!!! Really good work!! Also love the Bayerner Ritter, Vevey and the awesome dragon on the shields of your chinese army!!!

Thanks Gas.
IMO, the blue cap has an Asian touch to it that's interesting. Especially with this hair, 'cause it makes the cap lookk larger, but the colour is wrong, unfortunately. The bullet-shaped helmet is more "military", and maybe you noticed, I called them "bowmen": they don't even have a bow! They're merely footmen... or bannermen maybe, like Cheng would call them, aren't they?

WoT, Bolingbroke, wake up! The new knights are heeeeeere!

Panos, I'm not sure I will make an army of those, but the logo is just a sketch and maybe I can draw a cleaner one. How about the background colour? I thought it'd look like dusk...

Cheers,
Arnaud

The background colour is perfect Arnaud! Good idea and great use!

Sorry Arnaud,
I was out playing as a knight this morning! ;D

I think they look awesome! :o
The Nuremberg Guards look great too,
their Lord is da-BOMB! ;)

I only don't like the armor you used for the guards...
Maybe instead you could use the chain-mail neck piece?
Or a cloth neck piece... I think those would look better.


Cheng,
Looks like we have someone willing to rival our armies! :o
Perhaps we should sign a treaty and unite against him! >:D ;)
Steck is BACK! <:>
