@WoT: ain't that a grat link indeed?
@Giorginetto: wonderful sight, I agree!
@Gis: I'm glad you're back online!

Love the design but not a big fan of the colors. The combination of parts work very well though (like the scarce green feather), Any relevance to the golden chain he is wearing? (They all have chains so I'll just ask once)
Yeah, it's better you just ask once, Gis, beause they'll all have one: it's the Golden Fleece on their necklace. It was made of gold and should the bearer loose it, he had to replace it on his own funds.
That feather is now available from DS again, item umber: 30 24 1460

The red of the transfer is slightly less bright then the rest. Not really a fan of the chainmail in the middle of the caparison.
It's not varnished yet, the colours will match better after two coats of varnish. The transfers are matt, whereas the horse coats are glossy. For the chainmail, it's a matter of proportions; some designs needed to be repeated once at the front of the horse coat and once at the back, and they couldn't meet in the middle, it just didn't look good. So I used the chain mail to separate them, on some others, like Créquy, I just used a different shade of cloth.

The neckpiece on the knight is actually my favorite one.
I'm making a note of that!
