Title: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 24, 2012, 19:20:39
Been planning this for some time now... Showing you group pictures of all my knight factions. Delay was due to bits and pieces missing and constantly being add to the klickies. There are still some missing, either a single feather or a whole series of helmets, but I thought I'd start showing you these now and more later as the missing items become available to me... when and if they become available...

So anyway, here goes:

Tower faction

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04116.jpg)

Leaders:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04119.jpg)

Cavalry:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04120.jpg)

Footmen/guards:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04118.jpg)

Here are two versions of the champion...
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04121.jpg)
My original version is the one with the tabard... The full armor, having the coat of arms on his back is a recent idea... I intend to keep the first one as he goes along well with the champion of the next faction...

Cavalry:

White Swan and Black Swan

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04126.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04127.jpg)

I kept things simple with them, not too many leaders, just a steward and captain
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04128.jpg)

and a champion with two captains for the cavalry
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04129.jpg)

Most importantly, i saw great potential to the Back swan Special and thought they can make good footsoldiers for the overall Swan faction...
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04130.jpg)

However, I did change the original legs with ones of black splitskirt and supposed chainmail on the legs.

Here is what I like to call Old Yellow Lions

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04140.jpg)

Catapult troops
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04142.jpg)

and crossbowmen troops
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04141.jpg)

the front four crossbowmen holding a different colour shield is one of the setbacks I mentioned in the first post... I forgot I needed four of these shields...  ::)
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 24, 2012, 19:33:17
Next faction is mostly a custom made one...

Black Lions

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04143.jpg)

The knights have the original shield at their backs but I gave them fullplates and split skirt legs (black/darkgrey)
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04144.jpg)

Same with the footmen/guards, only the dot pattern seemed more appropriate in my eyes.

Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 24, 2012, 19:36:41
Moving to newer factions, here are, my again custom, New Yellow Lions

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04136.jpg)

Just one leader here, and a champion, but there is also a leading knight...
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04139.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04138.jpg)

Footmen/guards:

Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 24, 2012, 19:38:54
Still in the newer factions, ind insisting in their customising and uniformity:

Knight's Empire Faction

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04133.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04134.jpg)

They look awesome, what a magnificient collection. I must say those swan knights are looking better and better the more i see of them.
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 24, 2012, 19:43:13
Many of us disliked them... Many of us don't want to see them again... but here are my

Purple Barbarians

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04148.jpg)

Gave them three distinct leaders: a chieftain (far left) a shaman (far right) and a septarch (middle)
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04149.jpg)

In a way, they have become civilised barbarians  :lol:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04150.jpg)

But look closer... you'll see their ferocity reflected in their eyes...

And have you noticed, Jan, I gave them all plain silver armour, but only one of them, their champion, has the full plate gold armour  ;)
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 24, 2012, 19:50:06
The Old Wolf Knights are a very favourable group of mine...

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04151.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04152.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04153.jpg)

I consider them a completely seperate faction from the new bronze wolf knights... and yes, I changed those silly red legs with the silly looking shoes their big belly leader had... he looks more serious now :evilplan:

Thats all for now, much much more to come in the next days, so stay tuned  :knight: :knight: :knight:

This is a great thread! The size of each of the factions is mind-boggling! Thanks for sharing.
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Pynedor on February 24, 2012, 21:08:42
The sizes of the factions are definitely impressive. My collection is like a great mixture of different factions all grouped together, haha! I mean sometimes I can group them into similar factions, but most of them are completely different from one another... I just make the claim that different bands of warriors have, for some reason, decided to band together for some sort of cause of defence! You have enough to set up nice little battles between individual warring factions though - cool!
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Giorginetto on February 25, 2012, 07:40:51
Excellent diverse mix of the best medieval klickies ( in my opinion) playmobil has ever created !!! excellent collection Sir Wolf !!! Now its time to see them all in action in a photostory hmmmm  ;) ;) ;) ;)

Post by: Wolf Knight on February 25, 2012, 16:22:40

This Mercenary Army is a quite early project of mine. It was my first attempt to give in each klicky unique head characteristics... after a few combinations, I just gave up...

Sorry George, I know you love the original 7664 Black Lions, but I saw them better fit for a rogue mercenary army, sold to the highest bidder...
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: tonguello on February 25, 2012, 16:29:43
wow Panos! it keeps getting better and better!

Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 25, 2012, 16:32:04
And now, for what I call the pride of my collection, the Red Lion Army

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04156.jpg)

Leaders:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04160.jpg)

King and Bodyguards:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04159.jpg)

Cavalry/knights:
(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04158.jpg)

....Most importantly... their infantry....

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04165.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04172.jpg)

Needless to say, more numbers are keep being added to their ranks, whenever opportunity arises...
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: Wolf Knight on February 25, 2012, 16:36:59
Another favourite faction of mine

the Double Axe Vanguard... Sir Baldthar's force...

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04174.jpg)

(http://i1176.photobucket.com/albums/x335/Baldthar/Knight%20Factions/DSC04175.jpg)

I saw them as the ultimate military faction with extreme discipline and uniformity! Their banner transfers were designed by Arnaud cowabounga of course  ;)

More knight factions to follow... so stay tuned   :knight: :knight: :knight:
Title: Re: Knight factions
Post by: tahra on February 25, 2012, 16:40:47

She is the Dragon Queen from 3841 - Dragon's Temple (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=3841) but I always saw her as a priestess, rather than a queen...

This green dragon knight faction is indeed awesome!! they look very intimidating in big numbers  ;D The great helm and the winged arm greaves are a great combination for a fantasy faction!!! And the dragon crest in the knight helmets is a good way to show hierarchy in the faction  ;D

Well, I must say I didn't know you had so many knights. Maybe it's because they're not all on display on your shelves.
One tiny thing is bugging me: a blue harness on the Temple knights' leader? Come on Panos! You know better than that! Hadn't you any red harness left?
Best,

I have quite a few. But the blue harness makes a much better contrast to the red cross of the Templars. And lets not forget, this is a royal blue colour ;D ;D ;D fit for a leader, a colour of power!

Better than the strict requirements for yellow lion crossbowmen at least.  :lol:

They could just as well be called the antagionist faction.  ;)

Kidnapping damnsels, cheating at jousting matches, making war with friendly clickies and overall being the bad guy in many playmobil collections worldwide.  :)

Looks like yours have plenty of manpower to stand a chance against the good factions.

Your biggest faction by far!
I'm surprised you didn't ask for a caparison so their leader would stand out!  ;) :lol:

I am glad you like them  :)

Wow, that is a HUGE faction of knights!!!

Your biggest faction by far!

Really?  :eh?: Its 70 cavalry and 120 infantry... The black lions still have a superiority of 300 strong men... and rising...

I'm surprised you didn't ask for a caparison so their leader would stand out!  ;) :lol:

In my scenario, he is actually a dragon, remember?  ;)  ;D

Quite true  :lol: But in my scenario they are allied with the green, red and ... yes, black Dragon armies... so maybe they are a lot more stronger all together than any lion factions alliance  ;)

Panos, I'm amazed at the number and size of your factions! :o  I knew that you were working on completing a few custom klickies for a few different medieval factions, but I had no idea this would be the result.  Even your smallest faction is tremendously impressive, and your yellow dragon and especially your black lion factions are huge!  The care you've taken with the uniformity of the men and the customization of the leaders is most admirable as well.:wow:

Thanks guys!! I have quite a few more, but they are incomplete in numbers... I miss belts, arms, helmets, chainmails, etc etc, in some cases I miss a lot of legs and heads  :hissyfit: :hissyfit: So I still have a lot to show but it will take some more time to reach the appropriate numbers I need for each remaining faction.

Stay tuned  ;D

Guessing you've done some customising there, not overly keen on the fantasy knights but, they look much improved  :) love some of the shields and armour, I do wish that the round shield had a smaller handle though or even the shield itself was a little smaller.

Just use them as an airforce... or instead of horses  ;) Its also a good idea to use them in the manner in which Christopher Paolini describes in his books.

:love: :love: :love: :love:

Thanks Jan  :)

Guessing you've done some customising there,

Not much, just a little change or adding of accessories here and there, and build most of the captains and leaders from putting various different parts together.

Uhm.. Isn't THAT how he uses them? blah-di-blah-blah-blah link with the rider and all, but in the end, there are dragon riders..

(didn't read the last one yet, since I'm yet to find the proper sized paperback - he's no Martin, where I got the first BRICK edition of Dance I found, and will buy the proper paperback when I cross it)

Excellent factions!! My favorite (besides the purple dragon knights) are the first faction the Tower Knights and the Fleur de Lis knights. I encourage you to try to create different unit types based on weaponry within each faction!
