Hi. May be some of you still remember my "knights of Morr" project. Here is update, as you can see I'm going to produce resin multipart kits. What do you think about it? Would you like to preorder few sets (no payment needed, I just want to understand how many moulding forms shoul I produce) ;)

NOTE IT'S STILL WIP!








And here is whole progress:

Hey fp.

I've been following this project since the beginning. I am interested in buying some, but it will depend on the quality of the final product and the price.
Good luck with it anyway.  :happy:

I am interested in buying some as well but as said before it all depends on the quality and price of the finished product. From what I see here the quality won't be a problem as it looks great already  :::cheers:::

no I think that your english is much better than my Russian, I would do better if I could get my cyrilic keyboard to work with this computer. 50.00 sounds reasonable. Where are you located in Russia? You may have said in the past but I am an old man and don't remember. steveb

Well, I'm going to cast sets around december, I have to produce second horse based on this one and lots of bits. The hands would be separate parts, I'll also add command options.

Don't worry about quality, it's not a final look, i'll add some details and polish it to make it much more smooth :)

:) Nice work, but you promise me make some roses for this guy. Would you?

I'll announce my interest, but as it is WIP I say for 100% that I'll take them in the end.
But it sure looks promising.

Very Nice,

I'm currently working on my own GS knights but would be very interested in the horses. If you are prepared to do the warhorses alone I would like 8 of them please.

Lovely work  :::cheers:::

no problem, I can cast horses separate. May be you'll need the size of horse, it's bigger then normal empire barded warhorses.

рыцари-вечная головная боль.. хорошая работа, мне нравится. чисто ради интереса: будет один вариант лошадь/наездник? а то отряд из 5 одинаковых моделей ИМХО не очень как-то..
good work, anyway.

Nice gothic armour. Are they going to be historical-type knights with no shields? Because that would be good.

Будет 2 варианта лошадей, как у ГВ, всадники тоже будут разные. этот первый базовый. Короче полноценный вариативный набор. Спасибо за комментарий :)

I will sculpt second horse based on this, so you'll have 4 combinations of legs. 2 horse heads. Different hands and armour decoration for knights. 5 helmets.

Shield would be an option, so as you wish :)

хорошая работа

Indeed!

Are you planning any changes for the horse itself, or is what we see pretty much the finished product?

I'm guessing there will be a head for the horse.  :icon_razz:

My brother's been running a unit of headless pistoliers for years now... though I think that might finally come to an end soon...

And yes, both horses and men were headless... now they have heads at least blue-tacked on and they are kicking a lot more butt... no surprise really....

Oh and on topic, those knights look cool, they kinda remind me of the dark eld cold one fellows with the pointy toes and angular armour.

That's great, I always thought the GW horses were far too small. How much bigger are the horses.
