Black Knights
This is a group of Vampire Count's Black Knights that is part of a recent army we did. We thought these looked worthy of scrutiny :) All of the models have been converted to fit onto these cool Wight Lord metal horses. They're barded and hunched down which is a lot better than the cheap plastic ones they're provided with. The downside is they're $8 each plus GW shipping. All in all, though, I'd say it's worth it :) The leader of the group was converted from an old "Red Duke" Vampire figure that went out with 5th edition. He's had a head swap to the cracked skull and his fingernails were filed down so they didn't look all vampy. I really think the model looks better as a Wight! We also repositioned the horse to make it far more dynamic than as provided. It's a tough horse too, I was sure it would break with what we were putting it through! The premise is a young mage sought to extend his life through dark magic... and on his quest for knowledge decided he needed some followers. He found a small island country and turned it's inhabitants into minions... and now he leads an army of fishermen and animals turned powerful through death.
