One of the things in my world is that everyone has a 'gray' morality, and the gods don't care about the world, and the gods and their enemies resolve all their conflicts with sentient dice, and sometimes these dice fall into the mortal world, and they generally become objects of worship for cults, and make nice dungeon bosses.

A) Apply increasing amounts of force until it somehow fits...B) Bring it back to the store; it was a defective peg...C) Carve on one or the other until the fit is perfect...
D) ??

I remember Daniel Siskind had a set made by LEGO, it was rather nice. I like the British version better, feels more alive.

I ordered some Perry English archers for a size comparison. Hopefully that works out.

I prefer the Vallejo paints myself. Having never used Reaper paints, I can't say anything about them, but I find the Vallejo Game Colour works well, but some of their paints have a problem with consistency.

I got a 'test' sprue of sorts of Perry English archers, for my bretonnians.

Well, double post, but I did some more work on the Targaryen knight and started work on a Lannister one. I decided to strip the Baratheon mini because the yellow paint became horrible and splotchy. And sorry for the bad lighting, I had flash turned on and it messed the photos up. And I decided to paint the crests on their helmets bronze for some unity.

Hm, both of these are fantastic, but more on the tribal monster end. I'm thinking more like buckskin and fur, and they could look very different from orcs. One thought I've had is to get some plains indians from wargames foundry and do headswaps with something slightly monstrous. Or some Mongolian warriors if I can find a 28mm source
Fireforge games has some excellent Mongols, you may want to check them out.

A bit of unsolicited advice- the techniques of 2d artists often,translate quite well to our hobby.
True.

Transfers. I'm not that good at freehand, but I do plan to paint over some decals.

I painted up some of those Bretonnians I mentioned in an earlier topic, to be GOT themed. I've done a Baratheon knight and a Targaryen knight, and hopefully can paint up more knights from the great houses.

Did you order current issue KoR or some from eBay?
If you assemble the knights in stock condition they will look like they are kitted out for a jousting tourney. Trimming things away like helmet crests will go a long way toward making them look like Frankish knights on crusade.
Current issue ones. The Knights Errant heads look quite historical, actually.
The G.W., as TGP mentioned, may be a bit larger than the Perry miniatures. Here's a long, scale comparison article from L.A.F. that you might find useful:

The only other issue with the G.W. pieces is the raised shield patter in the four quarters of the horse's caparison. It should be fairly easy to sand off, but it may take a bit of your hobby time to accomplish.
At any rate, WELCOME ABOARD! HAVE A FUN STAY!
Thanks! It's really helpful.

Well, I ordered some Bretonnian Knights of the Realm, and wanted to make them work as knights next to some Perry miniatures. So I came here and would like some help.

Got the Bones Black Mist yesterday, and the Perry archers came today, so woo!
