From GeoffreyT: Citadel Miniatures Imperial foot Knights and the letter F (Coruscant) (30 points)

From Istvaan V, I deviate into the middle ring to visit Coruscant, where I tackle the theme 'Imperial'.

Since the 1980's I have slowly accumulated a Warhammer Fantasy Battles army for "The Empire".  It consists predominantly of 2nd/ 3rd Edition slotta base 28mm Citadel miniatures from the Fighters and Ogres "C series" released in the mid 1980's.  I supplemented this with some 5th edn dogs of war units from the 1990's and some oddities I have collected along the way.  The Citadel "C series" fighters and ogres are some of my favourite figures of all time.  The nostalgia ramps them up a notch too.

I collected these two from a private bring and buy miniatures swap-meet in October.  They are a small, but perfect addition to my collection.  

Each one I have in my 80's citadel collection is painted differently, as was the fashion in the era.  It makes it easy to add to the army, as I can just use old school painting and basing techniques and they fit right in.  Here the armour is simply done in two layers of metallics.  This will match stuff I painted decades ago.

For this claim I have

2 x 28mm figures = 10 points

+20 points for Coruscant

Alphabet soup challenge: F is for Fantasy Foot Knights

Just the last three letters to chase now, X, Y and Z.

That odd sound you can hear is Millsy dissolving in delight. I like the colours on the axeman and the determination on the bareheaded champion. It's great that you can slot these in to your venerable collection.
