Here is my Knight Templar. This is the first model I painted after about 5 years of not painting any miniatures.

I finished my first miniature...sort of...maybe...The Templar Sergeant...In my effort to leave him looking dirty, his tunic just turned out looking like a crappy dry brushing...I need to let him be for a few days and just look at him and see if it grows on me, or if I'll go ahead and correct the tunic...struggled with his buckles, too...very small...Overall I'm really happy with my first miniature effort...and I'd definitely say I've got the bug...really enjoying the process! I really did nothing with the base, as this is not his final resting place... Thanks Ben

Hey everyone! My name is Ben. I am a longtime modeler and diorama builder...but I've always worked in 1:8 and 1:6 scale...I am working on my very first true miniature now. I chose one from Reaper's Dark Heaven Legends line-02119: Knight Templar (http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/knight templar/sku-down/02119)...I've actually done some more work on this but I need to take more pictures...here's what I had as of yesterday...I realize it's not great, but I don't expect my first minis will be...anyway...very glad to be here! Thanks Ben

So my 8 yo nephew asked Santa for a fig for D&D. Here is what he drew so Santa knew what he wanted. So working with my sister this is the fig that was decided on. http://www.reapermini.com/OnlineStore/02119/sku-down/02119 I need to add a plume to the helm, and paint it by Sunday morning when I meet my brother in-law for a hand-off. I have asked Talespinner's advice and he has been gracious enough to assist me. Stay tuned for further updates.
