Excellent video as always. And you said something in passing that was an “OMG” moment for me: “don’t move around wet paint as it will create texture!” That was pure gold! THANK YOU! 🙏 I have been doing that for years and thought I hadn’t thinned my paints enough. It’s been driving me crazy. Thank you. Just another reason to watch and support your videos! Thank you, Sir! Cheers 🍻
Awesome series of mediaeval vids thank you, perfectly timed as I wanted to go back over a first attempt at French Agincourt knights that never really succeeded.
5:00 "Go on Bors, chop it's head off" "Right, one rabbit stew comin right up!" Seeing him like that decided it for me. If I ever get my hands on a box of these I'll probably have to paint them up like Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Unfortunately none of them look cowardly enough for sir Robin. Great job mate 👍
@@guilmon182 It'll be difficult for sure. Owing to the unfortunate dearth of source material. I did hear a rumour once that it was a mere babe in chainmail, but surely that's just a tall tale.
I think the coat bit you were asking about is literally just called a surcoat, like the two thin voats mascot. Also, i see a Dark Angel, howling gryphon and Novamarine, excellent choices :)
Great video and very helpful steps to follow. Which highlight did you use for the Altdorf Blue? Don’t think I could spot one listed in the video description.
the figures are very nice, but it's "small" 28mm. historically it is very very vague in terms of the period in view of the equipment of the models. superb painting as usual, always a pleasure to watch you paint.
Never seen the point of them. With a bit of practice you can drybrush without leaving chalky residue anyway, and between a wash and a varnish you'll almost never see what the texture palette is supposed to solve. It seems like someone started selling them and suddenly they were *everywhere* as the must-have, but... eh? Paper towel still works.
Great video! Still amazed by the power of marine juice! However, I prefer Army Painter as a company, so i keep to their products, which makes finding a replacement recipe tricky. I have considered the dark skin tone wash thinned with speedpaint medium, as it is sark but still has some red/purple tones. Have you found a useful alternative with the new AP fanstic line?

I'll grab some photos later, but for now it's worth knowing they're 'true' 28mm miniatures, so to put it bluntly they don't really scale in as replacements for Bretonnians if that's what you're thinking... or you could play another game with them?”
Yup! Beat me to it. In short, no, they're not going to be a replacement for Bretonnian knights unless you're planning to use others from the range as it releases.
See, I *thought* surcoat and then figured, "Nah, I wouldn't have that right first time, it must be something else" and threw it out. Gotta trust myself! 😂
Question, I've been mixing marine juice for a while now following your recepie, and I keep running into a problem where the mixture pools weirdly in some areas, almost like it's gone hydrophobic. Do you think there's something I'm doing wrong with the mix, or could it be the paints I apply it over, I've tried it over both acrylics and contrast paints, and I'm getting a lil worried I might be ruining my paint works.

Would love these as a kit bash for Trench Cursade. Thanks for sharing.
I'm not hugely into the Trench Crusade look, I'm afraid. Not likely I'm going to do anything for that any time soon.
You read my freaking mind. Thinking about this kit along with their French WW1 infantry for my New Antioch force
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio- wasn’t requesting- just me thinking out loud as it was.
@@connormorgan6137- yes picked up the WW1 French box on my travels this week.
These look beautiful and would stand out great on any table. I feel less afraid of quartering now :)
The cloth covering worn over armour are called the fflippety-fflap-fflaps. It is Old French.
I knew someone would know! 😜
Footsore Miniatures has transfers for the Barons War Metal range so they could work for the plastic minis as well
Also worth having a look at the mighty brush they do a wonderful range of transfers, lots of heraldic images to choose from
I am really excited to get mine and I hope Wargames Atlantic does more knights
There's a whoooole range of knights, sergeants, and levies coming down the line! :D
Great video! I would love to see you do more Wargames Atlantic stuff like this.
Another great vid to save to my "miniature painting" playlist for review and guidance!
Fantastic paint job as always, fun to see the bright colours. I love what wargames atlantic is doing, every release of theirs I like more and more!
Another group of minis that looks fun to paint. And it appears your wrist is back in "fighting shape"!
The figures look great and they would look good in a diorama as well as stand alone miniatures. Thanks for sharing this tutorial.
Huzzar! Sonic hath returned. Glad to see you painting again chap.
Awesome series of mediaeval vids thank you, perfectly timed as I wanted to go back over a first attempt at French Agincourt knights that never really succeeded.
Great work as always. Some of these guys will be perfect for part of my Battle of Bannockburn diorama featuring James Douglas (The Black Douglas).
These are great. And you are a treasure for the community. Thanks for this!
Still can’t believe how easy you make it look figures are great thank you, so glad you do these vids thank you 🙏
Oh wow, that quartering. I've never felt like I could do that before but now I really want to try it with these!
❤❤❤Love you're video's , love WA , diffecult to get them in Belgium. Thanks again .
This is great. Clean and approachable style. Good work.
Once again a fantastic tutorial on some great looking figures.
Very cool looking figures great to see another ma manufacture bring them out gives a great variety to an arm excellent painting tutorial
4:13 I've NEVER been able to get white paint to apply over black like that, I either get clumps or too watery.
Ironic that you did this, and I am waiting for my first group of Wars of the Roses Infantry to arrive. Great job!
Definitely going to try this when I start my Bretonians
5:00
"Go on Bors, chop it's head off"
"Right, one rabbit stew comin right up!"

Great job mate 👍
How might you paint up Sir Not Appearing in This Film?
@@guilmon182
It'll be difficult for sure. Owing to the unfortunate dearth of source material.
I did hear a rumour once that it was a mere babe in chainmail, but surely that's just a tall tale.
finaly a medieval paintjob!!!! awesome as always
This has come at a perfect time!
Superb knights, wonderful chain mails and colors/heraldy!👍👍
Great video! Goldberg and friends go on a merry quest.
I think the coat bit you were asking about is literally just called a surcoat, like the two thin voats mascot. Also, i see a Dark Angel, howling gryphon and Novamarine, excellent choices :)
Awesome.. I have a pile of Uruk Hai from childhood I need to paint and I think this would be the best way to do it!
Try out some Victrix minis mate. A real treat. Maybe their Norman Cavalry or Saxon infantry.
Great Video Troy. Looks really good. The miniatures are full of character. Add some footmen and levies and you’d have a nice skirmish force.
that is awesome, could you do one based on the Classic Lego knights of the Bull? I loved the games they appeared in as a kid
They look great! More medieval/dark ages, please!
Working on the same kit,I've picked up some great tips,thank you
Perfect for mordheim
Im calling this episode "Sonic Sledgehammer Foes Hollywood!"
Working on some isenkern stormtroopers from war games Atlantic struggling a bit instructions would have been helpful but they are cool.
Great job!

What's your thoughts on using a texture palette instead of a paper towel for dry brushing? Have you tried it?
That's is nothing more than an internet fad. One person mentions it in their video once and then the gullible masses parrot it continuously.
Never seen the point of them. With a bit of practice you can drybrush without leaving chalky residue anyway, and between a wash and a varnish you'll almost never see what the texture palette is supposed to solve.

How did you paint the boar head good sir, just free hand?
It's a transfer from the Cities of Sigmar infantry sheet.
i use your marine jiuce, its good stuff
Would you recommend these to act as foot knights for Old World? How well do they scale against the classic Bretonian Knights of the Realm?
Think he’s got this covered in the description box:
“Apologies for having forgotten the size comparison a few folks asked for. I'll grab some photos later, but for now it's worth knowing they're 'true' 28mm miniatures, so to put it bluntly they don't really scale in as replacements for Bretonnians if that's what you're thinking... or you could play another game with them?”
@@kendo5862 Thanks!
Yup! Beat me to it. In short, no, they're not going to be a replacement for Bretonnian knights unless you're planning to use others from the range as it releases.
@@kendo5862unless you don't mind the size differences that is.
What brush are using for the base layering stage there?
Surcoat is the word you're looking for.
See, I *thought* surcoat and then figured, "Nah, I wouldn't have that right first time, it must be something else" and threw it out. Gotta trust myself! 😂
Ate those bases 25mm or 30mm diameter? Thanks
25mm.
Question, I've been mixing marine juice for a while now following your recepie, and I keep running into a problem where the mixture pools weirdly in some areas, almost like it's gone hydrophobic.

👋👋👋👍👍👍💪💪💪🥰
Are they really 28mm? I doubt you could use them in a Bretonian army
They're 'true' 28mm. Bretonnians aren't. These would look tiny next to GW miniatures, yes.
@@SonicSledgehammerStudio thanks mate
