I had a horse and a knight which I haven´t painted yet, so I´ve put them together and made a falling knight out of them. It`s the kicking knight from Valdemar with a Zvezda helmet. I hope you like it. The picture shows him together with two other falling knights (no "conversions"). I´m still not sure about the horse´s legs; is the choice of colour good or should the grey be a bit brighter or even totally white? Critical comments are welcome.

I love this Set. Great painted!

Hi Ben
Nice Idea , the legs should not be only white but i would prefer black for parts of the legs .

Yes, the power of the english longbows... That´s exactly what I want to show on the diorama. It´s not easy because all manufacturers just have knights in full action, riding towards the enemy and on a diorama it looks like they will ride down the English easily. But the falling knights sets are just great for my dio... Thanks to all for your replies...

I´m very happy about this figure; actually I don´t wanted to use the horse and the russian infantryman from the Valdemar battle-sets because they looked too much like russians than french. But after some conversions I think this figure fits very good for my crecy diorama. The "cloak" on the tail-side of the horse is made out of greenstuff and the knight´s helmet is a conversion of a Zvezda helmet. I´ve cut off the visor and glued it on another helmet to let the visor look opened. I hope you like it...

wow, a great scene!

Btw how do you make the arrows?

I use a needle that I´ve cut into the right length. Then I put two drops of wood glue (I use "Ponal") at the end of the needle so it looks like feathers when it´s dry. Very easy and a good effect

Thanks I'll try this soon

Here is a part of my cristmas present ... It´s the bishop of laon for my battle of crécy dio... a great sculpted figure, and it was a lot of fun to paint!

Amazing work on the Fleurs de Lys
