from RayR - Chamber of Challenge - Knights Solar - King John 30pts

 


I've just ventured down the steps into Level 3 and into the Knights Solar.

Knights Solar: A chamber for painting Knights of all kinds, and their knightly deeds, loves, pastimes and quests.


Its now the last day of February and I'm only now posting the first figure I painted in the Challenge back in December. Every Christmas I paint a model up for my Dad as part of his Xmas pressie.


I painting up members of Royalty for him at the moment, so I thought Trent Miniatures version of King John, would be good.



He was originally going to be my entry into The Armoury, but thought he'd be better bumped over to the Knights Solar.


King John reigned England from 1199 until his death in 1216.


Points are easy on this one. 10 points for King John and an extra 20 points for the Chamber Bonus.

    Great figure Ray, love the work on the livery. Did King John get his big red India rubber ball for Christmas?
