Painting Bretonnians with Freehand Heraldry, Designs, and Banners

With Warhammer the Old World, we’re getting a lot of Bretonnian army painting. This army stood out from most other Bretonnian commissions though. This was because the client asked us to do a great deal of freehand painting. This was both for heraldry on the VIPs and caparison patterns on the mounted Grail Knights (we called them ‘horse blankets’).

This was unusual because freehand is an expensive, added service. In this case it came to a third of the budget. For the rank and file minis though, transfers were used for the shield design heraldry.

The newer Bretonnian models were good to work with. The older plastic injection kits, and some of the metal ones like the grail pilgrims, however, are still excellent.

Leaving out a few outliers like the old Bretonnian damsels, the sculpts worked together well for an coherent Bretonnian army.

These were all painted to Exhibition Quality. The freehand designs and heraldry were an additional fee.

Paintedfigs is a commission miniature painting service. You can send us your figurines to paint, and we also have painted miniatures for sale. We paint mainly Games Workshop (Warhammer 40k, Warhammer Fantasy, Age of Sigmar, Necromunda, Space Hulk, Bloodbowl, and so on), Star Wars, Warmachine and Hordes, and pretty much every Kickstarter and board game under the sun.

And we do so at the lowest rates on Earth (we’ve checked).
